About me

Hello, I’m Sharon, my mission as a fully qualified, experienced Solution Focused Hypnotherapist & Psychotherapist and therapists supervisor, is to work with you to get you feeling great again and back in control and feeling your best.  I specialise in working with clients experiencing panic, anxiety, stress, PTSD, OCD, low mood and food related issues as well as....

  • physical symptoms like hair pulling,
  • phobias,
  • dependency
  • IBS,
  • insomnia, hair pulling & other physical habits
  • pregnancy & calm birthing
  • building self-esteem and confidence

I see people online as well as face to face in clinic in Greengates, in the Bradford area. I would see you for 60 minutes each week at a time agreed and the amount of sessions depends on the condition, but we can discuss that when we make contact.

This style of therapy doesn't delve into painful past issues, instead it encourages you to move forward in life, what ever that means for you, and if your not sure where you want to be, we can work that out too.  The sessions as non judgemental and relaxed and contain lots of information to help you on your journey.  The first half of the session is talking and the second half is hypnosis - which is nothing to be afraid of, its something you do everyday without realising it, and is a wonderfully relaxed feeling. Together, we can work to improve how you feel and take control back. Take a look on my website for testimonials. I am enhanced DBS checked and fully insured. You can call me, message me on facebook or there is a contact form on my website.

REVIEW BY CHRISTOPHER T LEFT ON 28 NOV 2023  I have been seeing Sharon for help in overcoming health anxiety, anxiety, low mood and insecurity/low confidence and I cannot recommend her enough for the tools that she has taught me and the way that she has transformed my life from being unhappy and out of control to feeling happy, confident and in control. I did not envisage that these sessions could have such a profound and monumental impact on my life but they have completely changed the way that I look at the world and the decisions that I make for my own happiness. I felt completely lost and hopeless and thought that my life would just involve being unhappy forever but now I feel that I can achieve anything that I want to and I can make decisions for myself that result in being happy and in control and responding to life in the best way possible for my own happiness. Thank you Sharon for all of the help in achieving this and feeling in control to maintain this throughout my life.

 JAY M LEFT ON 20 NOV 2023  I think going to any form of therapy, hypnotherapy or similar is incredibly nerve racking as you want to be able to trust the person you see and to feel comfortable. Sharon made me feel at ease from the very first session and is brilliant at what she does. I have struggled since childhood with OCD, anxious thoughts & big fears such as flying. I also really struggled with being able to relax. Through the work done in my sessions with Sharon, my OCD is now gone (& I feel confident knowing what to do should it ever try and arise again), my anxious thoughts are reduced (I know when they do pop up, I’ve let my stress get too high) & my fears have reduced massively. I never thought I would live a life free or even have a reduction of all the above. I now know how to relax and I have found new hobbies along the way. I will really miss my sessions with Sharon (& the laughs we had along the way), she is a brilliant lady and I’ll be forever grateful to have found her when I did and for her helping with me with everything. Now it’s time for me to put all I’ve learnt in to practice. Thanks again Sharon

REVIEW BY SUE H LEFT ON 21 JUL 2023  It is no exaggeration to say that Sharon saved me from me! I am a different person to the ball of anxiety that walked through her door last December - I, honestly, see life differently and enjoy it now. Sharon was kind, empathetic and encouraging throughout the process - still a true professional, but one you can have a real laugh about this thing called life with (and who can ask for more?) I am now able to tell myself I CAN do, not can't do - I have new confidence, am driving with sass, speaking up and turning up, and loving life. Thank you Sharon, from the heart, for everything you have done for me & helped me with

REVIEW BY MIKE LEFT ON 30 JUN 2023 I used Believe and Achieve to help with my addiction. I was a bit sceptical at first, but Sharon explained how the process worked and what was involved...Needless to say after my first session I felt a weight had been lifted from my shoulders and I could start to look forward. I have now finished my sessions and my life has completely changed. I feel more confident now going forward and now enjoy my life with my family. Thank you Sharon for all your help and support.

REVIEW BY JACKIE E LEFT ON 1 JUN 2023 I have just completed my last session with Sharon. She has been helping me with anxiety, stress and a feeling of being overwhelmed. She has been amazing for me, I now feel so much more confident and happy, and feel as though I understand how my brain works and the things I need to do in order to keep myself calm and not allow myself to get too stressed in the future. Sharon made me feel completely comfortable at all our sessions and we managed some laughs along the way. I would 100% recommend Sharon to anyone who is considering some kind of therapy.

REVIEW BY SOPHIE P LEFT ON 30 MAR 2023 There’s not enough words and amount of appreciation I can show for this woman , it will never be enough! Sharon is one of a kind. Kind, patient, compassionate, and most importantly she makes you feel so comfortable! If you are like me, who was worried about taking that first step, just do it, you honestly won’t regret it! Sharon was born to do what she does and has the time for everyone no matter what. Thank you Sharon

REVIEW BY DR R LEFT ON 10 FEB 2022 I sought out B&A because I needed further support in recovering from a long-standing eating disorder. I hoped that the combination of techniques used by Sharon would lead to real change where other therapies had failed. I was not wrong. The combination of hypnotherapy and solution-focused, present-based but past-sensitive strategies has improved my quality of life and the way I treat myself. I've given these stars whole-heartedly because the last year of my life has been revelatory and a huge relief. If in doubt: try it out!

REVIEW BY A LEFT ON 13 MAY 2020 I wanted to control my anxiety and panic attacks. I can now rationalise my thoughts into a calmer logic process, I feel more assertive and much stronger. I wouldn't have changed a thing about my experience with Sharon she has patience and understanding and 100% professional in a friendly way. I feel normal again - it has been life changing. I would highly recommend without a doubt.
