About Shelley
Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with five years of clinical practice. Shelley Mondelli helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflict, low self-esteem, and depression. She works with adults who want practical, direct support and clearer coping skills.
Shelley draws on decades of wider mental health experience alongside her five years as a practicing therapist. Sessions focus on straightforward conversation about what’s happening now and small, doable steps to feel steadier. She addresses specific concerns such as panic attacks, social anxiety, feelings of emptiness, and codependent patterns. Shelley also supports people facing body image issues, abandonment fears, and substance use challenges.
Her approach is outcome-minded and people-centered. Conversations look at thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that keep distress going, then test new ways of responding. Treatment planning evolves from what clients report and what works in daily life. Shelley explains options and adjusts the plan as progress - or obstacles - become clear.
Clients can expect clear goals and practical tools to practice between sessions. Work may include learning coping techniques for panic, strategies to reduce alcohol or drug use, and communication skills for family tensions. Progress is tracked in concrete ways so adjustments are straightforward.
Shelley is based in New York and holds the LMHC credential. Sessions are conducted in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through clear steps and practice. Cognitive-style work looks at patterns of thinking that fuel anxiety and low mood, and teaches skills to test and change those thoughts. Behavioral strategies address avoidance and habit patterns, using gradual exposure and new routines to reduce panic and social anxiety.Choosing the right method is collaborative. Shelley will review what’s most difficult now, set concrete short-term goals, and try approaches that match the client’s needs and preferences. If a method isn’t working, she adjusts the plan together with the client rather than sticking to one technique.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. In practice, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also makes it simpler to use in-the-moment tools between sessions and to practice skills in contexts close to everyday life.
