Sharon | Counsellor MBACP

Counselling Macclesfield

Welcome...my name is Sharon and I am an experienced and fully qualified counsellor offering a warm, safe and professional counselling service to both individuals and couples. I offer an empathic, non-judgemental and confidential environment in which you can explore any difficulties you may be experiencing.

Each individual is unique and we all encounter things or times in our lives that we may struggle to deal with or understand. Sometimes we may think that our problem isn't important enough to seek help but if it is troubling you, creating anxiety or generally making you feel sad, then it is important.  

In working together, counselling can help you to find acceptance and understanding and to bring about the positive changes you may be looking for.

Types of issues

I work both individuals and couples and have experience in dealing with many issues including: 

• Abuse
• Anxiety / Stress / Depression
• Bereavement, Loss & Sadness
• Confidence / Assertiveness

• Life Limiting Illness / Pain

• Low Self Esteem / Low Self Worth
• Repetitive / Destructive Patterns
• Relationship Difficulties / Conflict
• Unresolved childhood issues

It's not uncommon for people to wonder "do I really need counselling?" but maybe an alternative question to ask is "might I benefit from counselling?"

I am here to guide you through the process, so if you have any questions please do ask.

About me

Underpinning any counselling theory is the therapeutic relationship between me, the Counsellor and you, the Client. 

I aim to support you and offer you the conditions needed to help you to begin to develop your own inner resources. I bring my authentic self to each client and each session and am passionate about the work I do.

As well as working in private practice, I have also spent 8 years working as a part-time Volunteer Counsellor in the Macmillan Cancer Resource Centre at Macclesfield Hospital, working with both cancer patients and their families. 

I am a member of the British Association of Counsellors & Psychotherapists (BACP) and adhere to their ethical framework for good practice.
