About Shauna
Counsellor Shauna Flynn is a counsellor listed with NCPS with three years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, plus trauma, depression and addictions. Shauna also lists support for grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger and self-esteem difficulties.
Shauna uses ideas from psychodynamic work to look at how past experiences shape present patterns. She draws on attachment theory and transactional analysis when looking at how people relate to others. This helps uncover repeated relationship patterns and the early causes of worry or trust issues.
She often works with people affected by sexual trauma and aims to help them rebuild a sense of agency in relationships. Shauna also helps people manage anxiety by learning what that anxiety is communicating and practising practical ways to respond differently.
Her practice includes support for a broad range of concerns such as codependency, addiction, chronic pain and body image. She lists work around parenting, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, and issues linked to commitment and control.
Shauna is based in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Her profile notes three years of experience and registration with NCPS. To begin she asks people to use the site matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Shauna describes work grounded in psychodynamic ideas, which looks at early experience and how it affects current feelings and behaviour. This approach can help when patterns from the past keep repeating in relationships or daily life.She also uses attachment theory to examine how people bond and relate to others. Attachment-focused work can help with trust issues, intimacy concerns and communication problems. Transactional analysis is another practical method she names; it looks at conversational habits and roles people adopt in their relationships to change unhelpful patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shauna will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to use together. This is a collaborative process and may change as needs become clearer.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer helpful continuity of care through regularly scheduled sessions that fit into everyday life.
