Rediscover who are you beneath the stress and struggle
Feeling Stuck, Stressed, or Disconnected?
Maybe you’ve been holding it all together on the outside, but inside, you feel drained, anxious, or unsure of yourself. You’ve tried pushing through, yet something still feels off. You don’t have to keep doing it alone. Reaching out for support isn’t weakness — it’s an act of courage and self-respect.
I’m Shelley McCaul, LPC, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and Michigan, offering online therapy through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed — designed to help you feel grounded, empowered, and more at ease in your own skin.
Together, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back, reconnect you with your sense of self, and help you create meaningful, lasting change.
​
What You Can Expect
In our sessions, you’ll find a compassionate, judgment-free space where your experiences and emotions are met with genuine curiosity and care. We’ll work at your pace, blending evidence-based and experiential methods such as EMDR, DNMS, CBT, Brainspotting, and Mindfulness-based practices to support your healing, growth, and self-understanding.
​
A Practice Built on Inclusion and Respect
Everyone deserves to feel safe and seen in therapy. I welcome people of all races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, abilities, and backgrounds. My practice is an affirming, inclusive space for members of the LGBTQ+ community and anyone seeking an authentic, accepting therapeutic experience.

About Me
I’m Shelley McCaul-Parent, LPC, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and Michigan, offering online therapy for adults who want to feel more grounded, confident, and connected to themselves.
​
My passion is helping people move beyond old patterns of anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional exhaustion — to create lives that feel lighter, calmer, and more authentic. I believe healing happens when we have a safe space to explore what’s beneath the surface and reconnect with who we truly are.
​
Since I was 18, I’ve devoted my life to helping others heal. I began my career working in a group home supporting individuals with schizophrenia, then served as a crisis counselor for Hurricane Ike survivors, a counselor for women living in a shelter, and later, a college instructor who guided students through stress, life transitions, and emotional challenges.
​
In addition to my counseling background, I’ve been a massage therapy educator and practitioner since 1998, giving me a deep appreciation for the mind-body connection — how emotional pain often shows up in physical ways, and how body awareness can be a powerful tool for healing.
My approach blends evidence-based and experiential methods including EMDR, DNMS/Internal Differentiation, Somatic Processing, Mindfulness, and CBT techniques. Whether we’re working on trauma recovery, anxiety, self-worth, or life transitions, my goal is to help you feel safe, supported, and empowered to grow.
