Shaun Flores is an Associate Clinical Social Worker #143185 dedicated to creating a space that feels warm, grounded, and open — a place where clients feel safe enough to talk about whatever is on their mind, without pressure or judgment. Working with a wide range of demographics, from children through adults, Shaun supports individuals facing anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, trauma, and relationship stress. His focus is on helping clients build resilience, find clarity, and create meaningful change.
Shaun's approach integrates evidence-based and human-centered modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Couples Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, he tailors his approach to meet each client's unique needs, focusing on what is most helpful and effective in supporting their goals.
Shaun holds a B.A. in Psychology from St. Edward's University in Austin, Texas, and an M.A. in Social Work from the University of Massachusetts Global in Aliso Viejo, California. Before his career in clinical practice, he served 18 years in the United States Marine Corps and was honorably discharged. This unique background gives him fluency in working with veterans, service members, first responders, and their families. His military experience also generalizes beyond the armed forces to anyone navigating trauma, hypervigilance, moral injury, or severe stress.
Whether you are stepping into therapy for the first time or returning to continue your journey, Shaun offers a grounded, judgment-free space to explore what matters most and move toward the change you seek.
