About Shaun
Shaun Brant is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and a range of mood and relationship difficulties. Shaun speaks English and accepts international clients.
Shaun approaches sessions from a client-centred perspective. He treats the client as the expert on their own life and uses that viewpoint to shape each conversation. He also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try small, manageable changes.
Clients can expect straightforward conversations that focus on what matters to them. Shaun also uses motivational interviewing to support change and hypnotherapy and psychodynamic ideas when those fit a person’s needs. He aims to help people find practical ways to cope with everyday pressures and big life shifts.
He has supported people dealing with relationship strain, low self-esteem, anger, sleep and eating issues, parenting stress, ADHD and the effects of bereavement. Shaun also works with concerns linked to substance use and domestic violence, and with questions about gender and identity.
If someone is unsure how therapy could help, Shaun begins by listening and mapping out priorities together. The process is collaborative and paced to the person’s comfort. To start, readers are encouraged to use the online matching and booking steps to arrange an initial session.
Therapeutic approaches Shaun uses and online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s priorities. It helps when someone wants to be heard and to make sense of their feelings without being told what to do. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical steps for changing patterns that worsen anxiety, low mood or sleep problems. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck about making a change; it uses guided conversation to build clarity and personal reasons for taking steps forward.Finding the right approach is part of what happens in sessions. Shaun will work with the client to review what helps and adapt methods as needs and goals become clearer. That collaboration helps set the pace and decide whether to try CBT techniques, motivational interviewing or other approaches mentioned above.
