About Shelley
Shelley Evans is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 30 years of experience. She works with adults and adolescents on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Sessions are conducted by telehealth as noted in her biography and she speaks English.
With three decades of practice, Shelley draws on long-term clinical experience to help people manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. She has worked with trauma, PTSD, grief, ADHD, depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, addictions and life transitions. Her background includes ongoing education and trainings that inform her approach.
Shelley uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in session. Those approaches are applied in practical ways - for example focusing on specific skills, processing distressing memories, and improving communication in relationships. She aims to help clients identify patterns that maintain distress and try different ways of coping.
Her work with grief and trauma often involves structured methods to process painful memories and reduce their impact on everyday life. With anxiety and stress she emphasizes skill-building for managing worry, stepping into feared social or performance situations, and lowering physiological arousal.
Shelley also supports people facing family of origin issues, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver stress, body image, codependency, substance-related problems, and separation or divorce. To start, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site’s online options.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques refer to approaches that have been shown in research to help with specific problems. One commonly used method focuses on skill building for anxiety and stress management - teaching breathing, grounding, and behavioral experiments to reduce avoidance and increase confidence in social situations. Another approach targets trauma-related symptoms by guiding people through structured processing of distressing memories to reduce their emotional intensity and the ways those memories interfere with daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Shelley will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before to recommend techniques that fit the person’s needs. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted over time based on progress and comfort.
The biography indicates sessions are provided by telehealth. Please confirm the exact session formats available before booking so they meet your needs. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, have shorter check-ins when needed, and choose whether to use video or audio depending on bandwidth and comfort. Licensed professionals can use these options to keep consistent appointment routines and follow up between visits when appropriate.
