About Shaun
Shaun Brant is a counsellor who draws on a person-centred approach to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction and depression. He works with practical, straightforward steps and listens for each person's strengths. Shaun holds the NCPS credential and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
He focuses on making sessions feel collaborative and down to earth. Shaun treats the client as the expert in their own life and helps them untangle what is getting in the way.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to build on existing strengths and explore small changes that make daily life easier. Shaun uses a mix of methods depending on what a person needs. He combines client-centred work with tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and motivational interviewing.
He may also include elements of psychodynamic thinking or hypnotherapy when these seem helpful to the person he is supporting. Typical concerns Shaun sees include grief, trauma, sleep or eating difficulties, low self-esteem, anger and relationship or communication problems. He also works with people coping with life changes, parenting stresses, ADHD and substance issues.
His approach is practical and focused on manageable steps. Sessions are designed to help people feel heard and to develop clearer ways of coping. Shaun supports people who want to move towards a more stable, content life by working at their own pace and goals.

Online support
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It uses simple exercises and practical tasks to tackle anxiety, depression or sleep and eating problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shaun will discuss options and decide together which methods suit the person's goals and preferences. The choice of approach can change as progress is made, and sessions stay collaborative throughout.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions or short live chat check-ins can fit into busy days and use less bandwidth. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions and can be useful for brief updates or tracking progress.
Many people find the range of formats makes it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting or other commitments. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework to each format so the work continues effectively.
