Shaun Brant, NCPS

Shaun Brant is an NCPS counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He focuses on common problems such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, relationship difficulties, sleep and eating issues, parenting challenges and anger. Shaun also supports people managing ADHD and the life changes that follow it.

Shaun approaches sessions from a client-centred perspective. He starts by listening and helping people name what is most pressing. He treats the person as the expert on their own story and draws on their existing strengths when planning next steps.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at the thoughts and routines that keep problems going. That work is practical and often includes experiments to test new ways of acting or thinking between sessions. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want help with change around substance use or other habits.

Hypnotherapy and psychodynamic ideas appear in his practice as additional tools. Hypnotherapy is offered as a way to access focused attention and reduce stress responses. Psychodynamic thinking helps identify long-standing patterns that show up in relationships and behaviour.

Shaun aims to be straightforward and practical in sessions. He helps people break down big problems into small, manageable steps. He supports clients who want to reduce reactivity, change habitual anger responses, or build better coping skills for day-to-day life.
