About Shelly

Shelly Daniel is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience based in Georgia. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, addiction, parenting strains, and family of origin issues. Shelly focuses on practical skill building and clearer thinking to help people manage daily challenges.

Shelly aims to help people identify strengths and limits so they can move forward. She emphasizes coping skills, emotion regulation, and steps that improve how people relate to others. Sessions are collaborative and aimed at practical solutions rather than long lists of theory.

Her approach centers on helping people try different ways of thinking and behaving when they feel stuck. That can mean learning new communication habits, practicing mindfulness, or using tools to reduce overwhelm. She works with clients who want concrete changes in mood, focus, or relationships.

Shelly draws on several methods in her work, including client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior tools, and mindfulness practices. She also uses ideas from the Gottman Method for relationship-focused conversations when relevant. These methods are used to teach skills and build steady routines.

Shelly combines a strengths-based stance with steady support and clear expectations. She asks questions, offers exercises, and coaches people through practice between sessions. Her aim is to help adults gain more control over emotions, repair relationships where possible, and handle life transitions with greater confidence.

Approaches used in online sessions

Shelly often draws on client-centered work that focuses on understanding your perspective and building on strengths. This approach involves asking about what matters to you and responding to your feedback so sessions reflect your goals.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and stress. CBT includes practical exercises and homework to change unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety or depression. Dialectical behavior therapy tools are another common part of her work and can help with emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication in relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Shelly will discuss options with you and adjust methods based on your goals, preferences, and what you notice works in session. You and the therapist decide together which tools to try and how to pace them.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific online formats. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work and family schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to practice skills between appointments. Ask during scheduling which session types are available so you can choose what fits your life best.
