About Shelly

Shelly Daniel is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting challenges. She brings ten years of practice to each session and focuses on practical steps you can use right away. Shelly emphasizes strengths and real-life coping skills over complex labels.

Shelly listens first and then works with clients to build useful thinking and healthier habits. She uses techniques from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, the Gottman Method, and mindfulness approaches.

Background and approach

Sessions often focus on emotion regulation, communication, and solution-focused planning. Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She helps people identify small changes that lead to clearer thinking and calmer responses.

When relationships, work, or life transitions feel overwhelming, she focuses on what can change now. Shelly pays attention to the whole person, including emotional and spiritual goals. She supports people dealing with family problems, attachment or abandonment concerns, codependency, and caregiver stress.

She also helps with addictions, anger, self-esteem, and career-related stress. People who do best with her are ready to try new ways of thinking and behaving. Shelly offers steady empathy, practical skill-building, and guided problem solving.

Her aim is to help clients move from feeling stuck to functioning more effectively.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting and life challenges

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what matters to you, and helps you clarify goals and choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to change thoughts and behaviors that increase stress or anxiety; it’s helpful for managing mood, parenting challenges, and unhelpful thinking. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness, which can reduce reactive anger and improve communication in strained relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and then tailor methods that fit your situation. This collaborative process means techniques can shift over time as progress happens and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Video allows face-to-face conversations for deeper interaction, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and messaging supports brief updates or ongoing exercises between sessions. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into daily life.
