Dr Sharon Elsley

I love working with individual clients ranging from adolescents to older adults. I offer a warm, empathic, compassionate and experienced space for you to grow and flourish.

I have been working in private practice for 22 years and see mental health as a developmental process of growth and building resilience. A solution to our difficulties is often recognising how we function and whether it is appropriate for your current circumstances. How we are is partly due to our background, life experiences, and how we respond to specific stressors.

My psychological approaches include CBT, Schema therapy, Humanistic therapy, Clinical Hypnotherapy, EMDR/ trauma release, Interpersonal therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
