Shaun is a warm, caring and calm psychotherapist who works with both individuals and couples. He is passionate about helping his clients to overcome their challenges and to live more fulfilling lives, while offering a compassionate and comforting presence. Shaun works with clients from all walks of life struggling with a range of issues, such as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and relationship issues. He has a special interest in working with clients who have experienced trauma, including childhood trauma, relationship trauma and sexual trauma, as well as individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder.

Shaun recognises that every individual is unique, and therefore requires a unique therapeutic approach. He takes the time to discover your needs and goals in therapy, and will then work with you to find the best treatment path to take together. He strives to create a relationship in which you feel safe, understood, and cared for.

Just like you, Shaun has experienced the uncertainty of contacting a therapist not knowing if it will work out. Understanding how difficult that first step can be, he wishes to make it as easy as possible for you by offering a free 15 minute phone consultation. He is accepting new clients, and looks forward to meeting you.

Many of the clients I work with have experienced relational trauma which can impact their capacity to feel safe with others, and develop trust. However, unearthing these memories right away can do more harm than good. Instead, we'll begin by understanding what safety means to you, both in mind and body, helping you to establish trust and ways to take care of yourself before processing trauma.
