Shaun Leworthy is a BACP-accredited counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of professional experience. He works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, LGBT-related issues, anger and low self-esteem.
As a gay, older male therapist who is non-religious and holds liberal views, Shaun brings both professional training and personal perspective to his work. He holds accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which recognises his professional standards and ongoing practice.
Shaun believes that each person is the expert in their own story and that they already possess strengths that can help them move through challenges. He aims to support and empower people as they take the courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling and happier life.
Many people ask whether talking with a therapist online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person work.
One key benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the format that suits them best, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access support from different locations.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals, and if someone feels a different fit would work better they are able to switch therapists at any time. Online therapy offers an accessible way to engage with professional support while keeping many of the core benefits of face-to-face care.
