About Shelley
Shelley Mclean is an Integrative Counsellor (BACP) based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works mainly with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self esteem, mild depression and life changes. Shelley practises in English and accepts international clients.
Shelley uses an integrative approach that draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit each person. Sessions focus on practical discussion and skills you can try between meetings. She aims to help people manage symptoms, understand past experiences that affect them now, and build clearer ways of coping.
Her work often addresses issues around relationships and family dynamics as they affect an individual. She also supports people dealing with grief, parenting pressures, career change and the effects of abandonment or separation. Additional concerns she commonly sees include dissociation, attachment issues, mood difficulties and panic attacks.
Shelley has experience supporting people affected by domestic violence, adoption and foster care, multicultural concerns, and non-monogamous relationship dynamics. She also offers help with feelings of emptiness, guilt or shame, and end-of-life or hospice related distress.
In sessions Shelley aims to listen, clarify what matters most, and agree on practical next steps. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first meeting. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How integrative techniques translate to online work
Integrative counselling brings together different evidence-based techniques to match a person's needs. One common thread is cognitive-behavioural strategies, which look at patterns of thinking and behaviour and introduce practical exercises to reduce anxiety or low mood. Another useful approach is trauma-informed conversation that helps people make sense of past events and learn grounding or emotion-regulation skills to manage distress.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust what they do based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where the person and counsellor agree on practical steps and review progress together.
Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking, as they are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer speaking without being on camera or who need flexible scheduling. Registered or accredited professionals including counsellors use these ways of working to help people make therapy fit daily life.
