Sharn Stewart
Understanding, tailored counselling support
About Sharn
Sharn Stewart helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, trauma and depression. She writes simply and listens closely to what matters most to each person. Sharn aims to create a calm space where people can begin to talk about hard things and work out practical next steps.
She has seven years of counselling experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Sharn uses an integrative, person-centred way of working, which means she adapts the conversation to what the person needs rather than following a fixed method.
Background and approach
Sharn understands how difficult it can feel to open up after painful experiences. She notices patterns in relationships and behaviour, and helps people make sense of those patterns. This can include issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image and shame.
Sessions are paced to suit the individual. The therapist helps people explore anxiety, panic, mood problems, trauma-related reactions and challenges linked to ADHD. Work may include talking through feelings, building coping strategies, and trying small adjustments in day-to-day life.
People describe practical benefits from a steady, compassionate approach that focuses on rebuilding trust in themselves. Sharn offers a supportive counselling relationship and helps people find clearer direction, increased self-compassion and more manageable ways of coping with life changes.

How Sharn's approaches work online
Sharn uses evidence-based techniques in a person-centred way so sessions focus on what matters to the individual. One common approach she uses helps people make sense of past trauma and reduce its impact on everyday life by gradually talking through memories and reactions and building coping skills. Another approach focuses on anxiety and panic by identifying unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and practising small behavioural changes to reduce avoidance and increase confidence.Choosing the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will listen to current problems, goals and preferences, and suggest techniques that suit the person. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan if something does not feel helpful, so progress is steady and tailored.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues and keep a face-to-face feel, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, ongoing reflections between sessions or for people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring duties and daily life.
