About Shaun
Shaun Brant is an NCPS counsellor registered in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, relationship concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients.
Shaun uses straightforward, person-focused methods. He treats the client as the expert on their own life and aims to build practical ways forward. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on skills to manage symptoms and relationships.
He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to listen and reflect, and on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify patterns of thought and action that maintain distress. Motivational Interviewing helps when change feels stuck, and elements of psychodynamic work are used to look at repeated patterns that come from earlier relationships. Hypnotherapy may be used as a complementary tool when appropriate.
In practice these approaches are combined into short, manageable steps. Shaun helps people try small changes between sessions and then reviews what worked. He pays attention to everyday routines like sleep and eating, and practical relationship skills such as communication and boundaries.
People who contact him are often dealing with difficult transitions, family strain or problems that have persisted despite effort. He asks clear questions, offers concrete techniques, and supports clients to plan the next steps they can try at home.
How sessions work
Approach in online sessions and practical benefits
Shaun commonly uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in his work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client so they can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns.He also uses Motivational Interviewing when people feel stuck. This approach helps clarify what matters to a person and builds small steps towards change. Shaun treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process and will discuss what fits best with the client's goals and preferences.
Confirm the session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around family life, work breaks or local commitments. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make attendance easier when someone is balancing caring responsibilities. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt the mix of listening and practical exercises to suit each person’s day-to-day routine.
