About Sharon

Sharon Redmond is an AASW social worker who helps people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, anxiety, stress and addictive behaviours. She also supports those coping with grief, major life changes, career concerns and mood issues. Sharon aims to meet people where they are and work at a pace that feels manageable.

Sharon keeps sessions practical and straightforward. She listens with sensitivity and tailors conversations to each person's needs. That might mean focusing on skills for everyday coping, talking through patterns that cause problems, or setting simple goals for change.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centred work. She uses these methods to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts, build action that matches values, and strengthen emotional awareness. Attachment-based ideas also shape how she looks at relationship patterns.

Sharon has three years of professional experience in Australia and uses the AASW credential after her name. Her background includes work with professional coaching and support for people navigating life transitions. She aims to be respectful and compassionate in every conversation.

Clients can expect a collaborative tone and practical steps between sessions. Sharon emphasises small, achievable changes rather than big, sudden overhauls. She encourages people to take the first step and supports them through the process.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It suits issues like low motivation, anxiety and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skill-building to change thinking and behaviour patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions, and can be useful for relationship strain and codependency.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as needs evolve.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as reducing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need a lower-bandwidth option. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your routine and goals.
