Clearing Method Specialist

  • Donna Thomson

    Hello, I'm Donna

    I am proud and delighted to say that I am a qualified Clearing Method Specialist and every day I feel immensely grateful that I was introduced to Shauna's work and her exceptional training.

    I began my training with Shauna in February 2021 with the Skills for Facilitating Emotional Mastery Programme followed by the Anxiety and Panic Programme and I completed The Clearing Method training in February 2023.

    Alongside the training I was a client of Shauna's. I have experienced and continue to experience first-hand how this approach can change lives.  

    The Clearing Method has returned me to my true self, free from the burdens of the past and it's an honour for me to be able to help my clients as they heal at source their own emotional difficulties from the inside out.

    I have over 10 years' experience working in private practice helping people with addictions, Anxiety, Depression, Self Esteem and Confidence issues. I have a particular interest in helping clients overcome Alcohol Dependency and Trauma Healing in Recovery.

    I am also a qualified Cognitive Hypnotherapist and NLP Master Practitioner. I regularly attend supervision, workshops and masterclasses to stay up to date with all my training.

    Hi I'm James. I use The Clearing Method to help people overcome anxiety, burnout, overwhelm, insomnia, chronic health issues, emotional pain & related issues. I specialise in helping driven people with burnout and anxiety to get professional & personal success, by treating the emotional root causes of those problems.

    Additionally I have experience with a wide range of other issues including addiction, depression, loss & change, trauma, relationship and attachment issues, psychogenic physical symptoms, and more.

    As a therapy client of Shauna’s, The Clearing Method changed my life. It helped me massively to overcome perfectionism, anxiety, burnout and psychogenic physical symptoms. It has given me huge leaps forward towards my best self and life. I was proud to qualify in Shauna's first cohort of Clearing Method specialists, and it's an honour to support my clients as they heal the emotional root causes of their own difficulties.

    I'm also trained as a Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapist, NLP practitioner and Coach, combining many therapeutic approaches (including Gestalt therapy, Positive Psychology, Evolutionary Psychology, Parts Therapy, NLP, EMDR (eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing), EFT, timeline therapy and more) into an adaptive framework.

  • Lydia J. Charak

    Hi I’m Lydia. I’m a registered psychotherapist specializing in The Clearing Method, Compassionate Inquiry and Expressive Arts Therapy.

    I have found that people want and need to have a chance to tell their story and have someone listen. Really listen. Their experiences, perspectives and stories are part of who they are, and sharing is part of their recovery. When working with clients, I incorporate an eclectic and fluid combination of talk, arts-based interventions, and evidence-based therapies to go deeply into the root cause of suffering to soothe and heal from the inside out.

    I am currently seeing clients on-line internationally and in-person in the east end of Toronto Canada and offer a trauma-informed approach treating individuals who struggle with mental health issues and navigating difficulties in their lives. I also enjoy working with individuals wishing to explore the concept of legacy, to connect with their true essence and authenticity and a desire to be more creative.

    Informed by the latest therapeutic methods and clinical experience plus a foundation in visual arts, poetry, and the power of dreams, I believe I bring a unique and compassionate approach to therapeutic sessions.

    Clients who get the most out of therapy with me are those who are willing to meet me halfway. They appreciate my active participation in sessions, my down to earth approach and aren’t bothered by the occasional colourful language that might fall out of my mouth. Sometimes there’s no better way to say what needs to be said.

    I feel I come to this line of work honestly. I am no stranger to personal trauma, its repercussions and how it profound affected me. This, no doubt, has had a major part to play in a lifetime of curiosity about what makes people tick, how their past relates to their present situations and how they can overcome difficulties in their lives however large or small.

    My treatment focus lies in the following areas:

    • Life transitions, Loss & Grief, Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, Legacy, Creativity, Essence & Vitality

  • Mairead Ryan

    With 17 years experience as a Counsellor/Psychotherapist, I currently operate a private practice as a person-centred therapist and I am a member of IACP. My education in Counselling and Psychotherapy was obtained at PCI College in Dublin, where I graduated with a B.Sc. degree from Middlesex University.

    In my therapeutic sessions, I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space, where you will receive compassion, warmth, and understanding.

    As a person-centred therapist, I prioritise your needs and work at your pace, placing you at the heart of your healing journey. Counselling can appear intimidating and overwhelming, which is why it's crucial to move at your own pace, feel heard and understood, and get the support you need to explore and understand your inner world and life experiences.

    In 2020, I began training with Shauna, completing the Emotional Mastery Programme, followed by the Anxiety and Panic Programme in 2021. I then went on to complete the Clearing Method Training Programme with Shauna in 2022, which has had a significant impact on my work with clients.

    My own personal journey with Shauna has had a profound impact on my own personal life and has given me first hand experience of healing from within using the Clearing Method. I am passionate about my work and feel privileged to be able to enable and empower clients who want to embark on this healing journey.

  • Hugh Osborne

    Hi I’m Hugh. I have been a therapist and coach for over 15 years. I have a lot of experience helping people with addictions. Having guided myself through my own recovery from drug addiction, I love helping others discover the same freedom.

    I also have a lot of therapists, coaches, and spiritual practitioners amongst my clients. I spent many years on the spiritual path, and had many amazing insights along the way, but at the start of 2020 I found myself lost and out of ideas. Fortunately, I found Shauna and her wonderful Clearing Method. This proved to be the missing link and after a year of therapy sessions, I found myself at home in my essence, at peace with myself and life, and able to inhabit my body with joy and ease.

    As a client, The Clearing Method had been a wonderful and transformative experience. Now I want to offer the same to my clients.

    I am delighted to have qualified as a Clearing Specialist. This wonderful method has given me the insights, awareness and skills I have longed for as a therapist and coach and I can now take my clients much deeper and further than before.

    Aside from being a Clearing specialist, I am also a qualified Cognitive Hypnotherapist, and NLP Practitioner.
