Are you struggling with everyday life? Do you find it hard to share how you feel because you think no one else will understand? Our life journeys can be difficult at times, but it doesn't have to be journeyed alone. I love helping people learn that they can overcome the difficulties life throws at them. I am, Shelly Welsh, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working with people struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, caregiver burnout, infidelity, vocational stressors, poor coping strategies and life transitions. I work primarily from a Cognitive Behavioral Approach while incorporating person-centered and solution-focused techniques. I will help you find the barriers to healing and growth and living your best life.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session you will be greeted with warm acceptance and unconditional positive regard. This first session will be a time to get to know one another and for me to gather important and pertinent information about you and your concerns. This will also be where we will, together, determine the most immediate and pressing goal to begin working toward.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Deciding to take the first step to change and healing is sometimes the hardest step to take and I understand how unsettling that can be. I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental, warm, empathetic and honest space for you to discover insight into your most difficult barriers and greatest strengths. I look forward to walking alongside you as you journey toward healing and growth and living your best life.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

What we think and what we do influences how we feel. Learning CBT helps manage thoughts and behaviors that can help to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress and more. CBT can help you challenge negative thinking, gain different perspectives, and choose different behaviors that can get you back on track to feeling better and living your life.
