About me
Welcome. My name is Sharon
Shields, a qualified counsellor
with a diploma from the
Australian Institute of
Professional Counsellors.
It takes courage to reach out.
We all have times when we need
to talk to someone about what is
going on in our lives. That is
what I am here for.
We will design treatment goals
that fit your unique personal
needs. I offer compassion,
understanding, insight, support
and guidance using evidenced
based therapies. In our
therapeutic relationship and
time together, you can expect a
safe, non-judgemental, reliable
environment, where you can feel
supported and empowered to
process things as we work to
help you achieve the outcomes
that you desire.
Professional Experience
Throughout my life, at home, in
the family, a variety of work
history and volunteering, I have
gained over 30 years of
experience working with people
in different life situations. I
recently became qualified and
offer private counselling.

anxiety, stress, depression,
relationships, grief, trauma and
abuse, anger management, career
development, workplace concerns,

am comfortable and open to
