About Shelly
Shelly Wilson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in Florida with 23 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and grief. She also addresses anger, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and life changes.
People meet her to talk about family and parenting problems and to work on communication and commitment issues. Sessions can cover panic attacks, dissociation, body image, and recovery after domestic violence. She also supports people facing career shifts, midlife questions, and challenges related to veteran and armed forces experiences.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centered conversation. She uses practical strategies and thought-focused work to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and emotionally-focused ideas are available when emotion regulation or relationship patterns need attention.
Shelly uses straightforward talk, structured exercises, and short skills practice between sessions. She aims to help people apply small changes to everyday life and measure what is working. Sessions include reviewing goals and adjusting steps as progress is made.
Sessions are scheduled through an online matching and booking process. The first step is a short questionnaire to connect needs and timing, then scheduling a first meeting. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How chosen approaches are used in online sessions
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and habits. It uses structured exercises and homework to change how thoughts and behaviors interact, which can help with anxiety, panic, and mood concerns.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and taking action despite difficult thoughts. It teaches skills to notice painful feelings without getting stuck and to choose actions that match what matters most. This is often useful for stress, life changes, and ongoing worry.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That decision is made together and can be adjusted as sessions progress.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available formats before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into weekdays, lunch breaks, or variable routines. It also allows for brief check-ins or more structured meetings and supports using worksheets or skills practice between sessions.
