About Shelly

Shelly Daniel is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Clinical Social Worker (CSW) practicing in Georgia with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship troubles, grief, depression, addictions, and codependency concerns. She uses practical strategies to help people who feel stuck or overwhelmed by life changes and emotional pain.

Shelly focuses on teaching skills that change unhelpful thinking and improve day-to-day functioning. She helps people build emotion regulation, healthier coping, and clearer communication. Sessions emphasize practical steps and small, manageable shifts in behavior.

Clients who want to try new ways of thinking and behaving tend to get the most from her approach. She works with strengths, noticing what already helps and expanding those habits. Shelly also addresses patterns that erode self-esteem and connection, including attachment and abandonment issues.

Her method draws on client-centered care, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior strategies, Gottman ideas for relationship skills, and mindfulness practices. Those tools are used to reduce reactivity, improve problem solving, and restore balance to daily life. She collaborates with each person to set clear goals and track progress.

Shelly describes her work as steady and goal-focused. She helps people weigh options, try skills, and adjust plans when needed. For anyone dealing with ongoing caretaking pressures, blended family stress, or the fallout from trauma and loss, she offers practical, skills-based support.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping the person find their own answers. It supports self-awareness and clarifying goals, which helps with relationship patterns and self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts and behaviors into manageable pieces and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, useful when someone gets overwhelmed or struggles with strong emotions.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Shelly works collaboratively to decide which approaches fit a person's goals, preferences, and everyday life. She reviews progress and adjusts the plan as needed so the work stays practical and relevant.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten a check-in when needed, and avoid travel time. Some formats reduce the need to be on camera or use less bandwidth, which can be helpful on a hectic day. Licensed professionals can still teach CBT and DBT skills and lead client-centered conversations effectively through virtual formats when those options are arranged.
