About Shaun

Shaun Cunningham is a licensed mental health practitioner with 25 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, and grief. Shaun also supports clients facing trauma, addiction, sleep problems, anger, and relationship issues.

She keeps sessions straightforward and focused on practical steps. Shaun listens first, then works with each person to set small goals. She uses clear tools and conversation to help people make changes that fit their daily life.

Background and approach

Shaun draws from several therapy styles to meet different needs. She blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness exercises. Motivational interviewing helps when change feels hard, and psychodynamic ideas can shed light on patterns from the past.

Her work often addresses family concerns and parenting challenges without assuming one approach fits everyone. Shaun helps people talk through communication problems, blended family stress, caregiver strain, and issues tied to family of origin. She also supports those coping with first responder stress and substance use concerns.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Shaun practices in Nebraska as an NE LMHP and focuses on clear steps, steady support, and realistic goals. She encourages people to try different strategies until they find what works for them.

Online support

How Shaun's Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and guides decisions about next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches simple skills to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shaun will talk with each person about goals and preferences and try methods that fit their life. Together they adjust pace and tools until something feels useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy days. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and exercises that benefit from seeing each other. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging can be helpful for brief updates, tracking progress between sessions, or when writing helps people organize their thoughts.
