About Shelley Wilman
Shelley works in an integrative way, tailoring methods to each person rather than relying on a single approach. She has supported people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, low self-esteem and challenges with motivation and confidence. Her practice also addresses relationship and family difficulties, intimacy-related concerns, anger, and a wide range of related issues such as abandonment, body image, cancer-related adjustment, and isolation.
She offers evidence-informed interventions including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), using these tools alongside client-centered and existential perspectives as appropriate. Shelley views each client as the expert on their own story and focuses on identifying strengths that can help in moving through difficult experiences. She aims to create a supportive space where taking the first courageous step into therapy leads to clearer understanding and practical choices for change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Shelley commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns - a practical approach often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems. She also provides Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for those working with traumatic memories; this method aims to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and associated reactions. In addition, Shelley draws on client-centered principles, focusing on listening, empathy and the client’s own goals to guide the pace and shape of therapy.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Shelley works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit best with their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses and new priorities emerge.
Online therapy with Shelley is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication preferences. These options make it easier to access regular support without the need to travel, and they allow registered professionals to maintain continuity of care in ways that suit each client.
