Sharon Boyd, BACP, NCPS

Sharon Boyd is a counsellor registered with the BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom, with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. Sharon supports adults navigating strained relationships and the personal effects of loss and trauma.

Her approach mixes practical talking therapy with exercises you can try between sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to address unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and notice painful thoughts without being driven by them.

Sharon uses client-centred and attachment-based ideas to focus on how relationships and early experiences shape current reactions. In sessions she listens for patterns in how people relate and suggests small changes to communication and boundaries. She will also offer skills from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy when stress regulation and distress tolerance are needed.

Sessions are straightforward and usually focus on current problems and steps you can take. Sharon encourages practical experiments and reflection between meetings. Her work is aimed at adults looking for clearer ways to manage emotions and improve relationships within new or blended households.

If you are considering therapy after a separation, a new partnership, or a change to family routines, she can help you look at the practical and emotional parts of those shifts. To book, follow the site's process to match and schedule an initial session.
