Sharon Weingarten

Sharon has a Masters Degree in Counselling, specialising in relationships. She is passionate about providing a safe and supportive environment for her clients using a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental therapy approach.

Sharon brings a wealth of experience to her work with both couples and individuals, skilfully navigating a diverse array of issues that can strain relationships. This includes helping clients to improve communication, strengthen connection, de-escalate conflict, navigate life transitions, address parenting concerns, and manage discrepancies in sexual desire. Her goal is to not only provide immediate support but help her clients and their relationships to flourish into the future. Employing evidence-based approaches, she customises therapy to the unique goals and needs of each client and their relationship.

Sharon is highly skilled working with clients from a broad range of backgrounds and communities including intimate relationships where one or both partners are neurodiverse. In addition, Sharon has extensive experience in supporting parents/carers whose children have been diagnosed with ASD/ADHD.

Prior to working exclusively in private practice, Sharon enjoyed working as a Family Peer Specialist at Alfred Child and Youth Mental Health where she worked as part of a multidisciplinary team which supported caregivers of children who have difficulty in emotional, social, and developmental areas. Additionally, Sharon enjoyed a career in Human Resources where she developed the skills to remain impartial during workplace disputes and help mediate respectful resolutions between staff members.
