Sharon Gunnell, NCPS

Sharon Gunnell, NCPS, helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and major life changes. She offers a calm, supportive space where clients can talk about what feels difficult and learn ways to cope. Sharon aims to help people regain a sense of self and move forward with clearer choices.

Her approach is person-centred and pluralistic, which means she works in whatever way suits each person best. Sessions focus on understanding where difficult feelings come from and on practical steps to ease their impact. Sharon uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centred listening to support change in daily life.

She has three years of clinical experience and works with concerns such as trauma and abuse, career stresses, and midlife shifts. Additional focus areas include ageing and geriatric issues, cancer, chronic illness and caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life counselling, and isolation or loneliness. These make her comfortable talking about illness, loss and the practical strains that follow.

Sharon speaks English and works from the United Kingdom. Her registration is listed as NCPS, and that credential is displayed as provided. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire via the Start Therapy button and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability. This gives a chance to discuss goals and agree how to work together before regular meetings begin.

How Sharon's approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them. It focuses on values and small actions that build a life worth living, which can help with anxiety, grief and managing illness.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises warm, non-judgemental listening and letting clients lead the pace and topics of sessions. This approach is useful when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and rebuild confidence after loss or change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sharon will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods that fit the person's needs. The direction can change as progress is made, and she aims to make the process collaborative.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm the available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow check-ins during breaks. Some people also find shorter or audio-only sessions helpful when they want a quicker check-in or less screen time.
