Welcome to Duality Therapy, LLC
Healing Starts Here
Meet Shelley Clayton, LCSW
I am licensed in Iowa, Kansas and Missouri with over 20 years within social work, mental health, and the medical fields. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, ADHD, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, depression, and the physiological affect mental health has on our bodies. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I pride myself in looking at people as a whole as well as their parts. You can expect empathy, honesty, humor, and most likely random movie quotes, song lyrics, and, yes, even Tik Toks.

My Philosophy
Duality refers to the coexistence of seemingly opposite experiences, emotions, or identities within a single person. In mental health, it means holding space for both strength and struggle, joy and grief, clarity and confusion—all at the same time.At Duality Therapy, LLC, I embrace the complex nature of being human. Healing happens when we stop choosing between either/or and start making room for both/and.

My Approach
Treatment
I’m a generalist therapist who works with a wide range of concerns, with a focus on adult ADHD, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I offer a compassionate, practical approach to help you navigate life’s challenges and create meaningful change.
Empathy and Understanding
Empathy and understanding form the basis of the therapeutic approach. I provide a compassionate environment where you can feel heard, validated, and supported throughout your healing journey.
Personalized Care
I believe in offering personalized care to every client. Our tailored therapy sessions focus on your unique needs and goals, allowing for a customized therapeutic experience.
Core Beliefs
I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique, specific needs and view our interactions as a partnership. We are on a road trip. You pick the destination, the route, and even the music. You are the driver and I'm simply the copilot with the map.
YOU ARE IN CONTROL
I believe that no one is all good or all bad. I believe that we are the way that we are because we have learned (or not learned) certain skills. I believe that everyone is doing the best they can with the knowledge and skills that we have in the moment.
YOU ARE GOOD
Taking the first step to seek therapy can take courage and I commend you for taking this important step! I encourage you to reach out for and advocate for the treatment and life you deserve. I can help.
YOU ARE BRAVE
