Shannon Hart offers a warm, person-centred approach that draws on cognitive and mindfulness-based techniques. She introduces herself simply and clearly, making room for gentle, practical work on stress, anxiety, grief and depression. Shannon uses conversation and focused exercises to help people manage changes and regain a sense of control.

Shannon qualified with a Master in Counselling from Worcester University after completing a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Psychology at Aston University.

Background and approach

She also holds NCPS, which is shown as her listed credential. Over four years she has worked with people facing trauma and abuse, addictions, phobias and disruptive patterns of behaviour. Sessions combine talking with structured tools.

Cognitive work helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness exercises train attention and calm. Person-centred elements keep the work grounded in the person’s goals and values.

Shannon also uses psychodynamic ideas to understand long-standing patterns and life themes. Where helpful she applies solution-focused steps and coaching techniques to set manageable goals and track progress. The mix is adapted to what each person needs in the room.

Shannon pays attention to communication and to building trust. She aims for straightforward language and clear plans so people leave sessions with simple steps they can try between meetings. The overall aim is practical change alongside greater self-understanding.

Therapy approaches that work well online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s goals. The therapist offers empathy and reflection to help people identify what matters and decide on next steps. This approach is useful for anyone needing a supportive space to talk through feelings and life choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Sessions often include exercises and experiments to try between meetings, which translate easily to video or phone work and help with anxiety, depression and sleep problems.

Shannon treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss options and adapt methods to the person’s needs, goals and preferences rather than using a single fixed model. That conversation helps set clear, achievable steps for progress.

Online therapy here offers flexibility and a range of formats. Video calls let people keep visual contact and use worksheets together. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging provide shorter check-ins, notes of reflection and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
