I feel very comfortable with Sharlin, she listens very carefully and has insightful questions just at the right moment that navigate the session in a way that I can identify the potential root causes of any given problem myself.

I have had two sessions with Sharlin so far and both have brought out a lot of buried emotions in me that I didn’t realise were there. Her advice has been great and I feel no judgement when I explain my issues. Sharlin listens and understands, and is great at explaining her advice.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Sharlin has been wonderful in helping me deal with family related stress, she also checks on you often and is on top of your goals to help you achieve them.

Sharlin is an incredible therapist. I feel like I’m in a much better place than I was last year, I barely recognise the person I was last year or the mind frame I was in! I want to thank Sharlin so much for all her support and guidance, she really helped me to change my thinking and rewire some negative thoughts and habits. I've recommended BetterHelp to others because of Sharlin. I’ve actually made the decision to stop therapy now but if I ever do come back on here for whatever reason, I'll be aiming to look for Sharlin if she’s still on BetterHelp. Thanks so much again to Sharlin.

I’m currently en route to seeing my mum for the first time in 2 years and honestly Sharlin helped me get here. Broken family relationships are 1 of my numerous issues but she’s patiently listened to me and guided me to understanding how I feel while exercising boundaries. I’ve had many a therapist but Sharlin is worth every blessed penny. She cares and it’s evident. Most importantly, she knows her sh*t.

Reviewed November 2022

Sharlin is one of the first therapists I’ve felt free to be fully honest with. And also frankly, I’m noticing the growth in me. It’s uncomfortable at times but she is incredibly patient and open and seemingly bloody good at her job because something is working. I will update this review in some months because we have more work to do, but so far, I think she’s an incredible therapist.
