About Shaun
Shaun Leworthy is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, anger and self-esteem issues. He also supports people dealing with LGBT concerns, domestic violence, post-traumatic stress and young adult issues. Shaun presents as calm and encouraging and aims to help people take the first steps towards change.
Shaun holds BACP, which means he is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
He has worked in the United Kingdom for 12 years, gaining experience with a wide range of emotional difficulties. His style is collaborative and practical, with an emphasis on helping people notice what already works for them. In sessions Shaun prefers straightforward conversation.
He helps people identify unhelpful patterns and tests small changes in everyday life. He uses structured approaches when useful, alongside space to talk about feelings and past experiences. Shaun draws on a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioural ideas, trauma-focused methods and mindfulness.
He adapts these to suit each person rather than following a fixed script. The aim is usable steps people can try between sessions. People who choose Shaun can expect a respectful, non-judgemental atmosphere and clear suggestions to work on between meetings.
His way of working is steady and focused on practical progress over time.

Online support
He also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people notice their thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept up by them. Mindfulness can be useful for managing anxiety and improving emotional regulation in day-to-day life. Shaun discusses options with each person and agrees a plan together so the approach fits their goals and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or people who find writing easier than speaking.
These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family life and to maintain continuity if circumstances change. Shaun will help choose the format and therapeutic approach that best matches a person’s situation and aims.
