/Sharon Storton
of My social work practice is the conscious weaving of a solid academic foundation, broad professional registrations and experience, and a lifelong spiritual journey. My work is informed by both my professional and lived experiences.
I have consistently seen hypnotherapy and guided meditations weave together the practical with the potential — enhancing behaviour change, tracing the roots of challenges, and supporting a healthy sense of identity and worth.
While meeting a significant health diagnosis of my own head-on, I trained in whole-food plant-based approaches to health, sound healing, healing the fragmented self, and other complementary modalities. This allows me to have informed and compassionate conversations with others who are contemplating a broader set of options.
"I walk beside each person with curiosity, compassion, and respect, helping them explore new ways of understanding themselves and the life they are experiencing."

My work is the conscious weaving of academic training, professional experience, and personal exploration. I blend evidence-informed approaches with transpersonal practices, creating an opening for practical change coupled with deeper self-understanding.
I walk beside you rather than lead from the front, offering guidance, tools, and support tailored to your needs. Together, we explore patterns, beliefs, and experiences that shape your life, helping you build resilience, choice, and a healthy sense of Self.
Every session is designed to support you feeling grounded and safe. Transformation is built on insight and actionable steps that resonate with your values.
