About Shaun
Shaun Cunningham is an LMHP with 25 years of clinical experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and the ups and downs of family life. She works with clients dealing with trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting strain, career pressures, and grief. Her style aims to be direct and compassionate so people can make steady progress.
Shaun uses a mix of practical strategies and deeper reflection in sessions. She draws on client-centered care to follow what matters most to each person. Cognitive behavioral tools are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Mindfulness practices help reduce reactivity and support better sleep and focus.
She also brings psychodynamic ideas into conversation to help people understand patterns that repeat across relationships. Motivational interviewing is used when someone is weighing change, such as with addiction or lifestyle shifts. Shaun adapts these methods to the goals and pace of each client.
Over her career she has supported people with a wide set of concerns, including ADHD, anger, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and complicated family issues. She helps clients sort through communication problems, blended family stress, caregiver burden, and recovery after separation or loss.
Shaun practices in Nebraska and conducts sessions in English. Her approach is rooted in listening first, then offering straightforward tools and insights. Prospective clients are invited to explore goals and options together before committing to a plan.
Approaches that translate well to remote work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. In online sessions this means the therapist reflects what matters most and helps the client set clear, achievable goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and uses small experiments to change unhelpful patterns; CBT techniques can include homework, thought records, and behavior experiments that fit into daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Shaun will work collaboratively to identify which methods feel most useful based on goals, preferences, and the issues a person brings. That might mean combining talking-focused work with practical exercises, and adjusting pace as needed.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people choose online work because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins, or avoid needing to be on camera every session. Online sessions can support work on stress, anxiety, parenting strain, addiction recovery planning, grief, and coping with life changes while keeping therapy manageable within everyday routines.
