About Shaun

Shaun Brant works on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and grief using a client-led approach. He uses the client's own perspective to guide sessions and draws on a mix of talking therapies and practical techniques. Shaun is registered with the NCPS and has four years of professional experience.

He believes the person in front of him knows their story best and aims to build on existing strengths. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than long lectures. Shaun uses a mix of conversation and structured techniques to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping.

Practical goals might include reducing panic or worry, managing urges linked to addiction, or working through feelings after a loss. He may use thought-focused exercises from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to explore unhelpful thinking, and client-centred methods to follow what matters most to the person. Hypnotherapy and motivational interviewing are also part of his toolkit when useful.

People can expect a straightforward style that balances listening with practical suggestions. Shaun aims to make sessions productive and easy to understand, with clear steps to work on between meetings. He offers sessions in English and works with people in the United Kingdom as well as international clients.

His background includes four years of practice in the UK and registration with the NCPS. That experience covers a wide range of concerns including mood, relationships, eating and sleeping problems, and coping with life transitions.

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person, helping them find their own solutions through supportive conversation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and some eating or sleeping problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shaun will discuss different methods and agree on what to try based on the person's goals and preferences. Decisions about which techniques to use are made together and can change as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm what options are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a working day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people choose whether to be on camera or not, which can help with comfort during early meetings.
