About Shirley
Shirley Delmoral is a Florida LMHC with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, depression, and coping with life changes. Shirley speaks English and Spanish and offers care from her Florida practice.
Shirley uses straightforward conversation to help people name what feels hard. She focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions. Sessions often include looking at unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing small behavior changes that fit daily life.
Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy to build collaborative sessions and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice moments of tension or reactivity without getting overwhelmed. Narrative ideas help people separate their sense of self from difficult experiences.
People bring many concerns, such as panic attacks, obsessive or compulsive thoughts, feelings of isolation, workplace stress, or struggles around pregnancy and parenthood. Shirley also supports those coping with guilt, shame, abandonment fears, and young adult challenges. She aims to keep conversations clear and focused so progress feels practical.
Sessions move at a measured pace, with attention to what a person can manage between meetings. Shirley encourages practice of new skills and checks in on what changes are helping. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the practice's online options.
How Shirley uses evidence-based approaches online
Shirley often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thought patterns that increase anxiety and then try small behavior experiments to test different responses. CBT is useful for social anxiety, panic, and repetitive negative thinking.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions collaborative, focusing on what feels most important to the person. Mindfulness techniques are introduced to build tolerance for uncomfortable feelings and to improve noticing stress early, which can help with anger and mood regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shirley treats selection of methods as a collaborative process and adjusts recommendations based on a person’s goals, progress, and preferences. She checks in regularly and refines plans when needed.

In general, remote work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time.
