About Shelley
Shelley Aeschliman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem. Shelley aims to make the first step easier and meets people where they are without judgment.
Shelley uses practical, collaborative methods in sessions. She focuses on clear goals and steps clients can try between meetings. Conversations are direct but respectful, with attention to what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
She emphasizes building skills for handling strong emotions, improving communication, and managing unhelpful thinking. Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods, including Gottman Method ideas for relationship patterns, cognitive behavioral techniques for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and client-centered listening to make clients feel heard.
She also uses tools from dialectical behavior therapy for emotional regulation and from emotionally-focused work to understand attachment needs. Shelley has worked with a wide range of concerns tied to family of origin, attachment wounds, codependency, impulsivity, and commitment or control issues. She helps people untangle patterns connected to guilt, shame, abandonment, or co-occurring problems so they can make clearer decisions.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Shelley describes progress as steady work - small, practical changes that add up over time.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Gottman Method ideas focus on identifying interaction patterns and improving communication. Online sessions let a therapist and client notice routines, practice new ways of speaking, and try small experiments between meetings to change how people relate.Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's perspective, with reflective listening and acceptance. In virtual sessions this means the therapist follows the client's lead, checks understanding, and helps clarify what matters most to them.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. Online work makes it easy to assign brief exercises, review what worked, and adjust plans quickly between meetings.
Shelley treats choosing an approach as a team effort. She will discuss your goals and preferences, then tailor methods that fit your needs. That collaborative process helps people feel engaged and better able to try new skills.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send thoughts in writing, use therapy without being on camera, and keep momentum between sessions.
