About Shelly
Shelly Daniel is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who uses practical, person-focused counseling to help people manage strong emotions and life stressors. She draws on ten years of experience to help individuals develop coping skills, regain balance, and move toward clearer thinking and healthier relationships.
Shelly focuses on everyday problems as well as harder challenges like grief, addiction, anger, trauma, and depression. She emphasizes emotion regulation and solution-building so clients can handle intense feelings and difficult moments more effectively.
Background and approach
The goal is improved functioning, not quick fixes. In sessions she helps people notice strengths and limits, then builds small, doable steps toward change. That can mean learning new thinking patterns, practicing calm techniques, or improving how someone communicates.
She favors methods that lead to practical results for daily life. Shelly works in a collaborative, respectful way. She listens first, then partners with clients to set goals and try new approaches.
She brings steady attention, empathy, and straightforward feedback to help people grow. Her experience includes supporting people through relationship strain, parenting stress, career shifts, and issues related to identity and self-esteem. Shelly holds credentials as LCSW and CSW and practices in Georgia.
She offers a strengths-based approach aimed at helping people move from stuck to steady.

Using practical approaches online to manage strong emotions
Shelly combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people change how they think and feel. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so a person feels heard and respected. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises to reduce anxiety, anger, and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shelly will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping the process collaborative and goal-oriented.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and emotional check-ins. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers voice only. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or when someone needs ongoing prompts between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
