Shauna Buck is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and self esteem. She aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and supported rather than overwhelming.
Shauna creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about hard feelings. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps them name practical next steps. Sessions often focus on building coping skills, managing intense emotions, and improving day-to-day functioning.
With seven years of experience, Shauna draws on what has helped other clients in similar situations and tailors that work to individual needs. She addresses related concerns such as grief, intimacy issues, anger, and compassion fatigue. She also pays attention to attachment and family of origin patterns when they affect present struggles.
Her experience includes supporting people facing substance and process addictions, codependency, and mixed mental health concerns. She also works with pregnancy and childbirth stress, sexual assault and abuse, and women’s issues. People who identify as LGBT can expect an accepting approach.
Shauna encourages practical changes that fit everyday life. She helps people set realistic goals and try small experiments between sessions. That steady, step-by-step approach is meant to build confidence and clearer choices over time.
Approaches that guide online care
Shauna uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people manage symptoms and make changes. She focuses on skill-building for stress and anxiety, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior-based strategies that help reduce overwhelm and increase day-to-day functioning. These methods are useful when anxiety or intense emotions make it hard to think clearly.
She also works with relapse prevention and harm-reduction strategies for substance and process addictions. That approach looks at patterns, triggers, and small changes a person can use to reduce harm and regain control over behavior. It pairs well with planning and problem-solving between sessions.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try techniques together, and adjust methods based on what helps. Clients and therapist decide what fits the client’s needs, pace, and preferences over time.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy weeks, keep continuity during life changes, and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or uninterrupted conversation when a longer slot is possible. Licensed professionals can help match the style of sessions to what will work best for everyday life.
She supports people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, and self esteem challenges.
