Sharon Gurr

Sharon Gurr is a qualified integrative counsellor and psychotherapist with 5 years of experience supporting people who find life challenging. She focuses on helping individuals make sense of who they are and consider where they want to go next, with particular attention to resolving past issues to create a more positive future.

Warm, caring and creative by approach, Sharon provides a safe space for reflection as well as practical opportunities for growth and learning. She draws on a range of therapeutic approaches - including Narrative Therapy, cognitive behaviour therapy, person-centred work, transactional analysis and a psychodynamic perspective - to suit each person’s needs.

Sharon also uses creative techniques to address parts of the self that can feel difficult to access, and to develop strategies for managing overwhelming feelings and emotions. She has worked with people presenting with depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, persistent habits and patterns, loss and grief, parenting challenges, career concerns, adverse childhood experiences and trauma.

She is a strong believer in self-efficacy and holds that people know themselves best, while sometimes benefiting from guidance to navigate life’s challenges and move toward their potential. If someone feels ready for change and growth, Sharon encourages them to take the first step and reach out to begin a collaborative, transformative process.
