About Shana

Shana Taylor is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She takes a calm, person-centred approach and aims to move at each person's pace. Sessions are warm and listening is central to how she works.

Shana draws on five years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as her credential. She works with adults who are trying to make sense of painful events, overwhelming feelings or repeating patterns that get in the way of daily life.

Background and approach

Practical concerns such as caregiver strain, chronic illness, body image and midlife transitions are all within her scope. Her style places the client at the heart of decisions about therapy. That means Shana asks about immediate goals, listens closely, and follows what the person feels ready to explore.

She also uses solution-focused techniques when a client wants direct steps to change specific problems. In sessions she might help a person spot unhelpful patterns, practise clearer communication, and set small achievable goals. Work can include looking at attachment and abandonment themes, managing dissociation, or addressing guilt and shame.

Shana offers talks through difficult memories and supports people working through loss of balance in life. She conducts sessions in English and sees people in the United Kingdom. Appointments use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Shana’s approaches work online

Shana uses person-centred (client-centred) work, which means she listens closely and follows what the person wants to explore. This approach helps when someone needs time to open up about painful memories or when they want someone to reflect back what they are feeling.

She also uses solution-focused methods that look for small, practical changes. These techniques help when the priority is concrete improvements such as reducing anxiety during specific situations, improving communication, or setting reachable goals to manage stress.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit those aims. If one way does not suit, adjustments can be made over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging can suit someone who prefers writing, wants to reflect between messages, or needs flexibility outside standard hours. These options make therapy easier to fit around work, caregiving or mobility limits and can help maintain regular contact.
