About Shaun
Shaun Cunningham is a Licensed Mental Health Professional (LMHP) with 25 years of experience based in Nebraska. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, addictions, relationship problems, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, career concerns, depression, ADHD and codependency.
Shaun keeps things direct in sessions. She listens and asks practical questions to help people see patterns they repeat with others. She focuses on what a person wants to change - for example saying no more easily, coping with someone else's drinking, or reducing people-pleasing behaviors that lead to burnout.
Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. She also uses Mindfulness practices to help with anxiety and sleep, and Motivational Interviewing when someone is weighing change. Shaun uses Psychodynamic ideas to look at family of origin issues and abandonment themes that show up now.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-focused. Shaun helps people set small, achievable steps and checks progress each time. She will also talk through communication strategies, boundary-setting, and ways to manage urges around alcohol or other addictive behaviors.
People who work with Shaun usually want practical tools and clearer patterns they can act on. She asks about daily routines, relationships, and stressors so the work connects with real life. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Therapy approaches and how online sessions work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can better understand their own choices and feelings; it helps with relationship habits and issues like codependency. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful actions. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple practices to calm the body and improve sleep and attention by noticing the present moment without judgment. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shaun will discuss what feels most helpful and adjust methods based on a person’s goals and daily life. This is a collaborative process where therapist and client try ideas and track what helps. Confirm the available session formats before booking through the site process. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling around work, caregiving, or travel and can reduce time spent commuting. Some formats also let people check in with shorter sessions when life is hectic, or choose an audio option when video is difficult. Check the matching questionnaire and scheduling page to see which formats Shaun currently offers and how they can fit into everyday routines.Areas of focus
