Shaun Marshall , NCPS

Shaun Marshall is a counsellor who focuses on practical, evidence-based help for stress, anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. She works with adults and adolescents and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and compassionate. Shaun uses everyday language so people can talk about what matters most without jargon.

She has three years' experience and holds the NCPS credential, which is shown as NCPS. Shaun combines methods to suit each person rather than following one fixed model. Sessions concentrate on what is happening now and on skills that can make daily life easier.

Typical sessions involve talking through symptoms, identifying unhelpful patterns, and trying small changes to break those patterns. Shaun pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns as well as the emotional effects of trauma, domestic violence and bereavement. She also supports people managing issues linked to autism and addiction.

Her practice covers a long list of practical problems including communication difficulties, codependency, control issues, dissociation, caregiver stress and separation. Shaun aims to help clients build clearer boundaries, better coping strategies, and a calmer sense of self.

Shaun works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. International clients can be seen, and she provides several online formats to fit different needs.

How Shaun uses practical approaches online

Shaun draws on clear, evidence-based techniques to help with anxiety, trauma and low mood. Cognitive approaches focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioural changes to reduce worry and low mood. Person-centred ideas are used to create a calm, listening space where people can make sense of their feelings and build self-worth.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Shaun will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that suit their needs. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as work progresses so the approach stays useful and realistic.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives or limited local options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or brief check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter reflections or times when typing is easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into evenings or weekends and to keep continuity when travel or location changes occur.
