About Shauna

Shauna Flynn is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and eating and food-related issues. She also helps with relationship problems, grief, trauma and addiction. Shauna works to make the room a calm place to talk and think through what is happening now and what led to it. Shauna uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how early experiences shape current behaviour. She also draws on attachment theory and transactional analysis to help people spot patterns in relationships. That mix helps clients understand why they react as they do and learn different ways of relating. Her work often focuses on helping people manage anxiety and build tools to cope day to day. She supports people recovering from sexual trauma with careful, paced work that aims to restore a sense of agency. When relationship issues arise she helps clients improve communication and resolve repeated conflicts. Shauna has three years of experience and holds NCPS as a credential. She practises in the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English. International clients are accepted, and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and arrange sessions according to the therapist's schedule. Costs vary with location and therapist availability, and the subscription covers ongoing sessions while active.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Shauna favours psychodynamic work and attachment-based ideas. Psychodynamic work looks at past relationships and events to reveal patterns that repeat today; it can help people understand why they respond in certain ways and make different choices going forward.

She also uses attachment theory to map how early bonds shape current relationships. That approach is useful for people who find themselves repeating the same conflicts, struggling with intimacy, or wanting clearer emotional boundaries.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Shauna will work with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful. That decision is collaborative and adjusts as needs and goals change.

The therapist biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around life commitments, reduce travel time and enable regular check-ins during periods of change. Some formats also suit shorter updates or quieter conversations when being on camera is not preferred, so practical considerations can shape how sessions are arranged.
