Just wanted to tell you that this morning’s workshop was great! You explained everything really well and I liked how you used different ways to illustrate your points (real life situations, your son’s Halloween story). I was most impressed with how you obviously know your material and stayed focused because there are so many ways one could go off on a tangent! So thanks for the very informative workshop! I plan to attend the next one.

My daughter was struggling with anxiety and it was getting to the point where it was beginning to affect her and our life on a daily basis. If she knew she was going to be outside of her comfort zone she would start to panic and focus on something in an obsessive and negative way in anticipation of the upcoming situation. She was the most anxious she had ever been when she started the six week anxiety management course with Sharon. She loved Sharon immediately and felt very comfortable with her. She has learned through Sharon why she may feel this way and how to use skills to help her cope better. I wondered how much she might absorb as a six-year-old but she seems to be able to remember and use what Sharon has taught her. As she was taking the course her anxiety decreased dramatically. When she begins to get anxious again we use the skills she has learned and talk about how she can manage and cope with the things that are bothering her. I have also learned how to help her. Our experience with Sharon has been invaluable. My daughter says she is the best teacher she has ever had! Thanks Sharon.

A few encouraging things in the last few days that I thought I’d share. Yesterday, our son managed to enter a men’s washroom at the beach by himself, which is the first time he has done so. He was initially very reluctant, but we used the language you’ve taught him. Yay! Tonight we talked about going to school tomorrow to practice using and flushing the toilets there, armed with several of the strategies you have taught him. His enthusiasm about the fact that he could see the value of something you taught him seems so important – not only does it show his receptiveness but it shows me that he feels ‘helpable’. This is a big change from before when he stated clearly that he didn’t think anyone could help him with his fears.
