Background and approach

She also draws on emotionally-focused and solution-focused ideas when relationships or short-term goals are central. Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Child and Adolescent Development and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Shelley works with individuals facing life changes, self-esteem struggles, communication problems, or compassion fatigue.

She also supports people navigating neurodivergence and the everyday challenges that can come with it. Sessions aim to be collaborative. Shelley helps set small, achievable steps so progress feels realistic.

She often offers practical exercises to use between meetings, like brief mindfulness practices or thought records that map out thinking patterns. People who choose Shelley can expect a calm, direct style that balances emotional work with action steps. She focuses on what someone wants to change and on strategies to get there, rather than long lectures or tests.

If someone prefers focused, practical therapy with emotional understanding, her approach may be a good fit.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that matter, even when thoughts or feelings feel difficult. It helps people who want clearer direction and more consistent steps toward what matters in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches practical tools to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and ADHD-related organization or planning challenges. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people recognize and change interaction patterns that keep emotional distance or conflict in relationships, useful when connection or intimacy is a central concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Shelley will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before to pick the best mix of methods. That collaboration allows adjustments over time so sessions stay useful and aligned with personal needs.

Online therapy in her practice uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is good for deeper conversations and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, reminders, and ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and varied routines.
