Hi, I'm Shelly — and I'm so glad you're here. Life can feel overwhelming, complicated, and exhausting at times. Whether you're navigating the pressures of everyday stress, working through challenges in your relationships, or simply feeling like something needs to shift, you don't have to figure it out alone. I'm here to walk alongside you. I have a deep passion for helping children, teens, adults, and senior adults find their footing, rediscover their strengths, and build lives that feel truly meaningful. I offer counseling via Telehealth, so you can access professional support from your own home - wherever life finds you!
Our relationships, work, school, and life experiences can and do take a toll on our mental and physical well-being. Reducing stressors, learning healthy coping skills, and being true to our authentic selves is a journey that can be optimized with therapy. My focus as your guide is to use evidenced-based modalities.
In our first session, I want to explore getting to know you, your background, culture, family, work, hobbies and of course what brought you to therapy today. I learn about what you have already tried to tackle your current situation and your overall goals for therapy solutions.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to replace those thoughts to change your feelings and improve your whole being.
