More about Shelly

- LMHC, LCPC
I’ve always been fascinated by people’s stories. Mine has been marked by adventures, deep joys, significant losses, and many dark nights of the soul. In all of it, I’m amazed at how the human spirit and the human body can recover time and time again; we are designed to recover. As a counselor for 23 years, I’ve provided support and direction to help facilitate the transformation possible within some of the most difficult situations of life. My counseling style is to be compassionate and nurturing, while also providing honest, straightforward feedback. I’ll approach your concerns with an interest in how, when, and why they have surfaced now. Your life is speaking to you, and I’ll help you pay attention. We’ll determine together how to move forward.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
