About Shirley

Shirley Delmoral is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 11 years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, anger, depression, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

She draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy, client-centered techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and narrative work to tailor care to each person's situation. Shirley aims to create an accepting, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can explore thoughts and emotions openly.

She emphasizes collaboration and empowerment, helping people identify practical strategies to manage symptoms, strengthen communication, and build healthier patterns. Her practice also addresses concerns such as abandonment, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, panic, pregnancy and childbirth-related adjustments, self-worth, social anxiety, workplace difficulties, and issues common to young adults.

Conversations may be conducted in English or Spanish, and sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Shirley works with each person to set realistic goals and develop coping tools that fit their lifestyle and preferences.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy with Flexible Delivery

Client-centered therapy places the person and their values at the heart of the work, offering empathic listening and support while clients explore choices and personal goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and developing practical strategies to reduce distress and improve functioning. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance skills that can help with anxiety, stress, and mood regulation.

Determining which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process. Shirley collaborates with each client to understand their needs, preferences, and goals, and together they adapt methods - sometimes combining elements of CBT, client-centered care, and mindfulness - to form a personalized plan.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase access and convenience. These options allow people to schedule therapy around work, family, or other commitments, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for sharing and learning new skills.
