MS, Licensed Professional Counselor
About Me
Welcome! I'm glad you're here.
I am Shelly Callais, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, LPCC) licensed in both Wisconsin and Minnesota, with a Master of Science in Counseling and over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I provide compassionate, client-centered therapy for individuals, couples, adolescents, and families seeking support through life's challenges.
Throughout my work in both private practice and community-based settings, I've helped clients navigate concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship conflict, family dynamics, life transitions, and emotional regulation. My therapeutic approach is integrative and eclectic. Using strategies and interventions from evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), -mindfulness, trauma-informed care, Internal Family Systems (IFS), family systems theory, relational therapy, and Solution-Focused theory.
I also specialize in working with couples to enhance communication, rebuild trust, deepen emotional connection, and resolve conflict in healthy, constructive ways. Whether you're facing long-standing relational challenges or looking to grow closer, I offer a supportive and respectful space for exploration and growth.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process—one that offers the opportunity to heal, grow, and reconnect with your authentic self. Every person's story is unique, and I'm honored to walk alongside my clients as they work toward meaningful, lasting change.
I would be thrilled to work together to help you live—and love—with more intention, resilience, and self-understanding.
Treatment Approach

I guide individuals and families in finding their inner strength and motivation to facilitate changes to create their best life.
