About Shelley
Her practice often uses cognitive processing to identify factors that feed anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation, unsatisfying relationships, unmet goals, and communication breakdowns. She pairs that exploration with practical skills training so clients learn to recognize their emotional cues and respond in healthier ways. Shelley’s areas of focus include stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, eating and food-related concerns, and compassion fatigue. She also works with body image issues, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, codependency, control issues, divorce and separation, family of origin concerns, guilt and shame, mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic attacks, and women’s issues.
As a licensed clinician, Shelley blends client-centered listening with structured techniques such as cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches to tailor treatment to each person’s needs and goals.
Integrating Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person’s own goals guide the work. It emphasizes empathy and active listening so clients feel heard and understood, which can help with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and adjusting to life changes.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that maintain anxiety, depression, and mood problems. It is skills-oriented and helps people set concrete goals and test new ways of coping.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers tools for regulating intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and enhancing interpersonal effectiveness. It can be particularly helpful for mood dysregulation, panic, and patterns of reactive behavior.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailor techniques from these approaches to fit the individual. Licensed professionals and therapists aim to adjust the plan over time so it remains useful and relevant.
Online therapy brings these methods to life through flexible formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into a busy schedule. These options increase accessibility and allow therapists to support clients in the ways that work best for their routines and comfort levels.
