Sharon Rasco is a Psychologist based in St Ives, NSW. Her practice is at 30 Marlborough Place, St Ives NSW 2075.
Sharon helps people through tough times and changes that can affect mood, sleep, work, and day-to-day life. Many clients come in feeling overwhelmed, tense, or stuck in anxious thoughts. Others are dealing with low mood or feeling flat, and they want a more steady way forward.
In session, Sharon offers individual counselling. Sessions are practical and focused on what’s going on for you right now. Over time, she works with clients to spot patterns that keep problems going, and to build skills that fit their real life—not just something that sounds good in theory.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is one of the main tools used in her work. CBT can be helpful for anxiety and depression, and it often supports clients who want to understand the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. At times, this can mean looking at coping habits, stress triggers, and the way worry shows up in the body.
Sharon also supports clients with stress management techniques. This might include learning ways to slow things down when your mind is racing, and finding small, doable steps to reduce pressure. For some people, the goal isn’t to “fix everything” quickly. It’s more about getting some breathing space, so daily life becomes more manageable again.
As part of care, she does anxiety and depression screenings. These check-ins can help clarify what’s going on and guide what to focus on next. They’re also useful when symptoms have been building up for a while and you’re not sure what’s driving it all.
