Introduction
My name is Sharon. I was born in South Africa and immigrated to New Zealand in 2008 with my husband and two children. We lived in Wellington for 8 years before relocating to Blenheim.
I obtained a degree in psychological counselling from a university in South Africa. After moving to New Zealand, I furthered my official education with a diploma in Life Coaching. I have also read countless books and done tons of research as well as spending two years receiving regular counselling/coaching myself in order to grow myself as a counsellor.
During that time, I wrote a course for kids that taught them how to be more resilient and implemented it in several schools. I have been counselling couples, adults and children under 12 since 2012 and thus have many hours of experience.
I now run my own practice in Blenheim where I have a counselling office and a fully equipped play-based counselling room for children.

I also see clients in person in Blenheim, New Zealand

Specialisations
I have a particular interest in working with children and have studied child psychology extensively. I have raised two children and thus bring a certain amount of life experience to my work along with my training. I have a background in education.
When I work with people, I tend to use goal directed and solution focussed methods. Much of my experience and training was with CBT type counselling and I am heavily influenced by this.
