More about Shona

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a pluralistically trained therapist & psychotherapist which allows me to use a variety of theories and techniques to support your needs. I am based in the UK, and I have three years of professional work experience. Most of my experience has been supporting clients who are living with trauma and adverse childhood experiences using a trauma-informed approach to therapy. I also have experience working with motivation, overwhelm, anxiety low self-esteem, and lack of confidence. I believe that you are the expert on your life and your story, and you already possess the inner strengths that will assist you in overcoming the things that challenge you - you may need reminding!

The first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I hope that I may be able to help you in this process. All are welcomed with open arms to a safe therapy space where you are invited to come as you are and however, you feel.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
