My name is Melissa Shanley and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and I am here to help. I graduated from Eastern Illinois University where I studied to earn my Master of Science in Clinical Counseling. I have years of experience working in and supervising community mental health centers, college settings, hospital settings, and as an outpatient therapist to all ages and populations. My professional interests include working with people who have experienced complex trauma/PTSD, family systems issues, and supporting people with attachment, anxiety, and mood disorders.
Through cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and family systems approaches I can help you alleviate symptoms, identify strengths, find hope, adjust your thinking, and teach ways to cope with negative and stressful thoughts/emotions.
I am experienced in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, crisis intervention, and family systems.
