Sharon Silver, BACP

Sharon Silver is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief and parenting concerns. She also supports people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, trauma or sleep and eating difficulties.

Sharon uses a mix of approaches rather than a single fixed model. She aims to build a steady therapeutic relationship and helps people talk through what is happening in their life. Conversations often focus on practical ways to change unhelpful patterns and to manage strong feelings in day-to-day life.

Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, together with attachment-informed thinking and client-centred methods. Mindfulness practices are used when helpful to reduce stress and to notice unhelpful thinking habits. Sessions emphasise clear steps you can try between meetings.

Sharon brings personal experience of parenting and family life into her understanding of household pressures and caregiver stress. She also has additional focus areas including abandonment, attachment issues, blended family challenges, codependency and communication problems. These themes often emerge alongside anxiety, grief and life changes.

She offers support for menopause-related concerns and for people coping with compassion fatigue or co-morbidity. International clients may be accepted and sessions are conducted in English. Before booking, confirm current session formats and practical arrangements via the site.
