Hello I am Shaun,
I specialise in helping people overcome the effects of childhood trauma, co-dependency, all addictions and obsessive behaviours, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, bereavement and relationship issues empowering people to live their best lives despite their past difficulties and present blocks.
My qualifications include an MSc in Addiction Psychology and Therapy, BA(Hons) in Integrative Therapy, Post Induction Therapy (Pia Mellody’s model for The Meadows for healing and resolving developmental and childhood trauma).
I am BACP registered and FDAP Accredited.
My Work as a therapist came about as I witnessed the devastating effects of addiction in my family and my own recovery from co-dependency. The lived experience of overwhelming emotions, the need for support, and the willingness to engage in a process of healing is testament that recovery is possible with limitless positive outcomes.
I worked as the “live in” therapist at Paracelsus Recovery and The CALDA Clinic in Switzerland that have taken me further afield to the Middle East and Asia. Other organisations I have worked at include Spitalfields Crypt Trust, Croydon University Hospital and Mind Charity. I am a Sessional Therapist at The Priory Hospital North London as well as running this private practice.
I run healing workshops that address the fallout of carried unprocessed emotions from childhood trauma experiences that impact individuals in their adult lives and relationships.
My aim is to continue to help people discover their authentic selves and function with the gifts and talents they have regardless of the past difficulties and present obstacles.
Remember that “although we cannot change the direction of the wind we can adjust our sails”.
