About Shauna
Shauna Buck is a licensed clinician based in Utah who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, and anger. She offers calm, steady support for those dealing with trauma, relationship strain, depression, grief, and self-esteem struggles. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at people who want practical ways to feel better day to day.
Shauna creates a setting where clients can talk frankly about hard feelings without judgment. She prioritizes listening first, then works with each person to set clear, achievable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on skills you can use between appointments as well as the stories that shape current behavior. Over seven years of practice as an LCMHC - Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor - inform her approach. That experience includes helping people cope with process and substance addictions, attachment and family of origin issues, and compassion fatigue.
She also supports clients facing sexual assault, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and issues common to women and LGBT clients. Shauna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address patterns like codependency, co-morbidity, and guilt and shame. She works with people navigating blended family challenges, intimacy-related worries, and changes that come with major life transitions.
Her aim is to help clients build better coping skills and clearer boundaries. People meet Shauna for a mix of short-term coaching-style work and longer therapeutic support. She explains next steps clearly and helps clients plan follow-up strategies that fit daily life.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Shauna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on skill-building and processing difficult experiences. One common approach emphasizes practical coping skills and behavioral change to reduce symptoms of anxiety, anger, and addiction; it helps people develop routines and step-by-step strategies they can use between sessions. Another approach centers on processing trauma and difficult emotions through paced conversation and building emotional regulation skills, which supports recovery from abuse, grief, and intense stress.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past attempts at change, and daily life constraints, then try techniques that fit those needs. Over time the plan can be adjusted based on what feels most helpful and what produces progress toward the client's goals.
Online therapy with Shauna is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video lets people have a face-to-face conversation; phone calls require less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins and brief coaching between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, family, or travel schedules while keeping a steady course of support.
