About Shirley
Shirley Savage-Hampton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Nevada with ten years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD-related difficulties. Her focus also includes adoption and foster care concerns, aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, and family of origin problems.
She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage daily challenges. Sessions often include identifying and reframing unhelpful thoughts, setting small achievable goals, and practicing skills for concentration and emotion regulation. The aim is to give concrete tools rather than abstract theory.
Shirley describes her style as integrative, blending cognitive-behavioral techniques, client-centered conversation, and elements of dialectical behavior strategies. That means clients may work on changing thought patterns, reflect on what matters to them, and learn coping skills for intense emotions. Each plan is adjusted to match the person's current needs and goals.
People who have difficulty with motivation, impulsivity, or executive functioning can expect structured steps to improve routines and task completion. Those coping with grief, forgiveness, guilt, or hospice-related issues will find focused conversations about meaning, boundaries, and next steps. Practical exercises and short homework tasks are commonly used between sessions.
Sessions are conducted in English and Shirley does not work with international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Shirley draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This approach includes practical exercises like thought records and behavior experiments that can reduce worry and improve mood.She also uses client-centered conversation to encourage reflection and clarify personal goals. That method focuses on listening, asking questions, and helping people decide what matters most to them in daily life.
Dialectical behavior strategies are part of her work for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Those skills teach concrete ways to manage intense feelings, improve interpersonal effectiveness, and reduce impulsive reactions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will review needs, goals, and preferences and try methods that fit the person's situation. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful.
The therapist's profile does not list specific online session formats. Confirm current session options before booking to learn whether video or phone sessions are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt homework, skill practice, and structured goal work to remote sessions so therapy fits everyday life.
