About Shanni
Shanni Hurton is a counsellor who works in an integrative way, combining practical approaches to meet each person's needs. She uses familiar methods such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. She holds NCPS accreditation and brings 16 years of experience to sessions.
Shanni aims to keep sessions straightforward. She listens without judgement and helps people name the problems that matter. Conversations focus on small, workable steps that can reduce stress and build coping skills.
Background and approach
Her background includes long-term work with trauma, grief, anxiety and addiction. She also addresses struggles such as low mood, sleep and eating difficulties, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues tied to self-esteem and life purpose. Practical strategies are paired with careful listening to tailor what feels right for the person.
Shanni uses short-term, goal-focused methods alongside trauma-informed work when deeper processing is needed. That mix lets people try immediate tools while also addressing longer standing patterns. The emphasis is on what helps in daily life - better sleep, calmer thinking, clearer boundaries, and steadier moods.
Sessions can be by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs and schedules. She works from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book a time that fits their schedule.

Online support
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through a person's goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan together. This means the first few sessions are often about learning what helps most and building a practical way forward.
Online therapy offers flexibility and different ways to connect. Video calls let people read visual cues and share a longer conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for people who prefer writing, want brief support between sessions, or need a format that fits around busy days. Many people find mixing formats works best for ongoing progress.
