I use sound, art materials and psychotherapeutic touch called biodynamic massage as well as somatic techniques.
My work centres around trauma, developmental trauma, emotional neglect, the highly sensitive person and the capacity to understand and express feelings and emotions. Through working with body awareness, somatically and with mindfulness breathing, you will come to understand how these feelings arise and why your body responds and behaves in the way it does; why you say things and act as you do. As you become aware of the effect of this on yourself and others, you can make informed decisions and choices on how to change this so that you live your life fully and authentically to reach its full potential.

Art is a powerful resource in psychological healing. During an art therapy session I use art making as the primary mode of expression, alongside talking with my client. You do not need to be good at art to benefit from art therapy. The artwork produced in sessions is more an expression of feelings and emotions rather than a traditional drawing or painting.
I work with children, young people, and adults. During art therapy I will help my clients to express and articulate often complex thoughts and feelings through art making. This may be following difficult or traumatic experiences which are hard to talk about.

You might be someone who does everything for other people, but ends up feeling burnt out, unappreciated and the bottom of the priority list. On the outside you might look like you have it all together, because you learned to survive by staying strong and keeping busy.
Many of the people I work with feel they have to prove their worth by doing everything for everyone and sacrificing their own needs. They sometimes struggle to recognise what their needs are.
Together we can look at patterns that taught you to self-sacrifice, help you recognise your needs and learn how to have them met, and build a strong sense of self worth.

Hi, I'm Sharon and I'm a qualified psychotherapist and reflexologist. I have created a very bespoke therapy room designed to feel calm and comfortable the moment the client walks through the door. I work in an integrative way which means that I adapt to suit the client's needs (person-centred), as well as using other theoretical approaches such as CBT.

Somatic Counsellors
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
