About Me
Zentopia Counselling has been created from a professional and very personal understanding of the power of a good therapist.
With a compassionate and client-centred approach, I bring expertise in supporting individuals through the challenges life presents, using evidence-based strategies tailored to real-life situations. My common areas of practice include anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationships, communication, and neurodivergent concerns.
As a certified ADHD and Executive Functions Coach, I offer a unique understanding of information processing and provide support for cognitive differences across diverse environments.
I work through a lens that prioritises building self-esteem and recognising each individual’s unique way of thinking. My therapeutic approach is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, with additional application of Solution-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
As a certified EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) practitioner for trauma, I equip clients with long-term tools to address ongoing challenges.
I hold qualifications as both a Teacher and Guidance Counsellor, enabling me to create a supportive space for adolescents, parents, adults, and educators to address and navigate educational challenges.
My extensive career in senior management roles within both private and public sectors has provided me with a strong foundation in workplace relations, and expertise in managing work-related stress and anxiety.
If you are looking for a different experience based in holistic approach to wellbeing, then I would encourage you to book in for a session and see if we might be a good a fit.
Looking forward to meeting you,
Sharon
