Online support
Bringing attachment work and skills-based therapy online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. In sessions Sharon helps people notice those patterns and how they affect close connections and responses to stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that match those values even when emotions are difficult. That approach is helpful for people feeling stuck or uncertain about life direction.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sharon will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, so therapy stays practical and personally relevant.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skills demonstrations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit short updates or timely support into a busy day. These formats offer flexibility so therapy can fit real life while keeping focus on consistent, useful work.
