How Shauna works
Her style is warm and practical. She listens for patterns that repeat in relationships and daily life. Then she helps people try different ways of responding that feel more effective and sustainable.
Shauna draws on ideas from attachment thinking, psychodynamic ideas about past influences, and transactional analysis to make sense of how people relate. She uses this understanding to address problems such as abandonment fears, attachment issues, and commitment concerns. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, doable changes.
Shauna can help with communication difficulties, codependency, substance problems, chronic illness stress, and recovery from domestic or sexual violence. Work can include coaching-style planning when people need practical next steps. To begin, clients choose a subscription plan, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.
Shauna offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Shauna uses attachment-informed work to help people understand patterns in their close relationships and how early experiences affect current reactions; this can be useful for anxiety, intimacy problems and communication issues. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to explore repeated behaviours that come from the past and to help people see why they react in certain ways. Transactional analysis is used to map communication patterns and identify new, healthier ways to relate.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Shauna will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt techniques so they fit the person's life and pace. Clients are encouraged to try different ways of working and to give feedback about what helps.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility around work, family and travel. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited, chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people write reflectively between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work even when circumstances change.
