Shaun Marshall, NCPS

Shaun Marshall is a counsellor with three years' experience supporting adults and adolescents through stress, anxiety, grief and depression. She holds NCPS and aims to make sessions feel calm and practical. Shaun offers a listening space where people can talk about what matters most to them and work on small changes that make everyday life easier.

Her way of working adapts to each person. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address problems such as trauma and abuse, self-esteem and relationship communication. Sessions focus on clear goals and on skills people can try between meetings.

Shaun has a particular interest in complex trauma and long-term emotional distress. She also helps people manage issues linked to attachment, abandonment, dissociation and addiction. When grief or painful life transitions are present, she guides conversations that support gradual healing.

Her practice welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and identities. Shaun describes her approach as collaborative and non-judgemental, aiming to build a sense of safety and empowerment as therapy progresses.

She asks people to be realistic about the work involved and to expect steady steps rather than quick fixes. Sessions are practical, focused and shaped around the client’s needs. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and then schedule according to Shaun’s availability.

How Shaun adapts evidence-based approaches for online therapy

Shaun draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions so they are practical and focused. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking and test small behavioural changes; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress. Person-centred therapy prioritises the client’s experience and works on listening, empathy and building self-understanding to support personal growth.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Shaun treats the choice of approach as collaborative and will discuss options based on a person’s needs, goals and preferences. Together they decide what feels most useful and adjust as therapy progresses.

The practical benefits of online therapy are about fitting sessions into everyday life. Online work can make it easier to attend from different locations, reduce travel time, and allow sessions during evenings or weekends. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm the exact options before booking so you know how meetings will take place. Registered or accredited professionals can guide clients on how to prepare and what to expect for each format.
