About Shelley Wilman
Shelley practices in an integrative way, tailoring her work to each person rather than following a single method. She has a long history of supporting people working with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, motivation, self-esteem and confidence. Her clinical toolkit includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which she uses alongside other approaches as needed.
Shelley frames clients as the experts of their own stories and focuses on strengths that can help navigate difficulties. She recognises that taking the first step into therapy can feel daunting and requires courage. In sessions she aims to help people deepen their understanding of concerns and feelings, and to support clients in choosing and working toward the changes they want to make.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Client-Centered Therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of the process. It involves listening without judgement, helping people explore feelings and values, and supporting growth in self-understanding - useful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and feelings of emptiness.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain distress. It offers practical strategies to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress and to build more effective coping skills.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to help people process distressing or traumatic memories through structured, phased sessions. It can be offered when trauma or past abuse is a central concern.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative part of therapy. Shelley works with each person to understand their needs, goals and preferences, and to decide together which methods are most likely to help. Licensed professionals and therapists adapt techniques over time as progress and priorities emerge.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit into daily life and different comfort levels. These options make it easier to access ongoing support, schedule appointments more conveniently and continue therapy when in-person meetings are difficult, while enabling the same therapeutic work to proceed with licensed professionals and therapists.
