Shanni Hurton, NCPS

Shanni Hurton is an integrative counsellor and an accredited member of the National Counselling Society (NCPS), the professional body for counsellors in the United Kingdom. With 16 years of experience, she brings a compassionate, non-judgemental approach and works to create an open, honest space where people can explore what is causing them difficulty.

Working integratively, Shanni draws on techniques from humanistic practice, cognitive behavioural methods and solution-focused work to tailor sessions to each person's needs. She combines practical strategies with reflective, person-centred support to help clients identify strengths, shift unhelpful patterns and move toward meaningful change.

Shanni supports people across a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting challenges, anger and self-esteem. She also works with clients facing career transitions, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue and the many adjustments that come with life changes. Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, communication problems, control issues, separation and divorce, guilt and shame, impulsivity, loneliness, life purpose and midlife questions.

She works with children, young people and adults, meeting each person where they are and collaborating to explore options for positive progress and lasting coping skills. Shanni follows the ethical framework of the NCPS and aims to offer clear, respectful professional care.
