About Shaun
Shaun Henry is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York with 19 years of professional experience supporting people through relationship challenges, self-esteem and confidence concerns, career difficulties, and major life transitions.
Background and approach
He frames his work around respect, sensitivity, and compassion, shaping conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person's particular circumstances and goals. His practice also addresses a wide range of related issues including communication problems, caregiver stress, infidelity and divorce concerns, fatherhood issues, workplace struggles, and questions of sexuality and non-monogamous relationships.
Shaun integrates several therapeutic approaches, drawing on practical strategies and thoughtful exploration to help clients advance toward more satisfying and functional ways of living. Clients can expect collaborative care that emphasizes motivation, skill-building, and personal insight.
Shaun encourages people to take the step of reaching out and offers steady support as they work toward clearer priorities and healthier patterns in their lives.
Approaches That Guide Online Work
Shaun often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this approach is practical for addressing relationship strain, self-esteem, career stress, and coping with life transitions. He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, prioritizing a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client's own goals and values shape the direction of work. Finally, Mindfulness Therapy appears in his toolkit to encourage present-focused awareness and stress management practices that can support emotional regulation and clearer decision-making.
Choosing the right approach is usually a collaborative process. Shaun works with each person to understand their concerns, preferences, and what feels most useful, adjusting techniques over time so the plan reflects evolving goals and comfort with the methods being used.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility for people with busy schedules or mobility limits. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access therapy from different locations, while allowing the therapist and client to focus on practical skills, conversation, and progress that translate into everyday life.
