Sharon is hands down the best therapist I have worked with. She understands me so well, I finally feel understood, seen and heard. Abd she always manages to help me in working through my issues in a way that I see I make progress and I learn different tools to achieve that. She creates a safe place to heal. Very empathetic. I honestly am so grateful I found her. I searched for a long time. She is just the right person in the right job. Rare find. Clear recommendation.

Sharon really helped me work through some difficult mental stresses and painful memories from the past. It's helped me feel more centred and I use her suggestions regularly to help me feel more positive and proactive in life. I'd recommend her highly.
