More about me

Licensing: LMHP, LPC, MsEd Years in Practice: 23 State: Nevada

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Nebraska with 23 years of experience. I have done both office-based and home-based counseling and have worked with a range of concerns--addressing everything from codependency to anxiety to depression to Al-Anon issues.

My counseling style is based on person-centered therapy. I believe that you are the expert on your own life and your perspective is critical to resolving your issues. Showing respect, empathy, and compassion to all people is of the upmost importance to me. However, my main theoretical approach stems from the Cognitive Behavioral therapeutic school of thought.

It takes courage to seek assistance help you are struggling with life's stressors. I look forward to meeting you and hopefully providing the support you need to resolve any matters that are causing you distress or emotional pain.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

My life has improved immensely in the last 2 years since meeting with Shaun. I feel heard and seen. I am encouraged to remember my confidence in my decisions.

Sep 17, 2022

Overall

Shaun tries to get at the heart of my issues. Oftentimes I truly don’t know how to start processing events in my life. Shaun helps me look at what I think/feel instead of how I think I’m supposed to think/feel. This helps me feel confident that I’m capable of making decisions about the events in my life.

Shaun has helped me through so much while I’ve been trying to come back to myself as a whole being. I’m able to fully open up my self to her which I’ve had a hard time doing in the past.

Overall

Shaun has been extremely supportive of me in our sessions over the past year. She is always very insightful into the things I am dealing with, and her suggestions and questions feel very tailored to me and what works for me. I can see and feel the growth I have made over this past year, and I know it is thanks to my work with her.

S.T.·Sep 18, 2021

Overall

When I started with counseling I had no idea what to expect. All I knew was that I was desperate for help. I have found, through almost one year of counseling with Shaun , that she has listened and helped me find my own way. She has not told me what to do but help me learn that I can have the confidence to do what I need to do. When she learned more of my story she referred me to Alanon. This has propelled me on a path of healing….. and a journey that I will continue through my life When I have felt like I’m in a crisis mode in between sessions, I have no hesitation in reaching out and messaging for support.

Shaun is the absolute best! She has helped me so much in the last year, and I don’t know how I would have survived without her.

Shaun is great! I look forward to our weekly sessions and she has really helped me to deal with my anxiety

The best way to do something like this accurately would have to take a little more time. 2 dates doesn't make a relationship perfect.

Overall

Thought the first few sessions Dr. Cunningham has been absolutely amazing. Really helping make progress in the right direction, for the first time doing this I’m happy I was paired with such an amazing conselor

M.I.·Feb 02, 2021

Overall

Shaun has been the best therapist that I have ever worked with. She actively listens and and brings up valid points while still allowing you to be in control of the content of the session. Shaun is also kind hearted with a sense of humor that puts you at ease. You will definitely benefit from working with Shaun!

K.A.·Jan 10, 2021

Overall

I met with Shaun for about 2 months. She was a good listener and sounding board for me during a very difficult time. I appreciated her ability to name some of my behaviors as codependent or unhealthy. She also always created room for me to come to my own conclusion as to how to solve my problems. I tended to do most of the talking, but Shaun's created a safe space and provided valuable input.

A.D.·Dec 07, 2020

Overall

Shaun has been a great counselor so far, she is very understanding and thoughtful about the discussion, and provides helpful feedback and insights. We’ve only had a handful of sessions, and I’ve already been able to make small changes in my life and unload some of the stress through our sessions. Looking forward to continuing to work together.

S.E.·Oct 01, 2020

Overall

Shaun has been a wonderful counselor to me since I signed up for BetterHelp. I’m someone who struggles a lot with anxiety and has always been made nervous by phone calls, so I was worried about starting Teletherapy, but Shaun immediately made me feel very comfortable. In every session, it is clear that I am heard and that I am supported. She listens to me, validates my feelings, and helps me find ways to move forward and grow. She is an excellent counselor and I am very glad to have her in my corner.

S.T.·Sep 30, 2020

Overall

Very grateful for my time with Shaun! Not only did I feel heard and understood, but she provided me with actionable steps and goals to help me move in the right direction. I left our sessions feeling lighter, more in control (which is saying a lot during this crazy time with so much out of our control), and generally, well, better! I also really appreciate her patience and flexibility, she never minded if I needed to step away to tend to my toddler or switch tech modes due to lost connection. I would love to work with her again in the future and highly recommend her.

L.O.·Sep 29, 2020

Overall

Since we first started talking it has been an unfolding helpful experience. I have seen things differently and practiced them in my daily life. I attribute this to my counselor, who made it very easy to open up and learn the things about myself I wasnt seeing. Shes down to earth and open minded. I enjoy my weekly sessions and look forward to the next.

H.E.·Sep 28, 2020

Overall

I've been speaking with Shaun at least once a week for the past few months. When I first came to her, my life had gone through a lot of changes and I had a lot to work though. I didn't really have a positive self image and I wasn't comfortable standing on my own in social situations. Shaun's helped me to have a better sense of self worth. I'm more comfortable around people. I also feel like I'm better able to advocate for myself at work. I'm also much less depressed and generally things feel more positive. I'm not sure I'm quite though this yet, but Shaun's professionalism, kindness, and patience has been really helpful.

D.I.·Sep 28, 2020

Overall

Shaun was extremely helpful and available. She listened, remembered key details, and provided resources for my anxiety. I really value my sessions with Shaun!

Overall

Shaun is thorough, follows up on concerns, and great at looking at the whole picture of your life to help get to the root of your concerns.

N.I.·Aug 07, 2020

Overall

Shaun is thoughtful and engaged, showing flexibility and creativity through different styles of conversation, probing, and active listening. I feel that it's likely I'll make improvements on my key concerns by working with her.
