About Gillian

Gillian DeLano greets people who are feeling overwhelmed and stuck. She focuses on clear, practical steps that families and individuals can use to reduce stress and manage anxiety. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people regain a sense of control and calm.

Gillian holds LSCSW and LCSW credentials and practices in Kansas. She brings seven years of clinical experience to work with trauma, grief, compassion fatigue, and family conflict.

Background and approach

She also helps people facing chronic pain, illness, and disability and those dealing with guilt, shame, or forgiveness. In sessions she asks questions that help people name what matters most to them. She uses tools from acceptance and commitment approaches and cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful patterns.

She also draws on solution-focused methods to set short-term goals and track small wins. When trauma or post-traumatic stress is part of the story, she offers trauma-focused care aimed at stabilizing symptoms and building coping skills. Her approach balances practical skills with space to process difficult emotions without rushing the pace.

People who meet with Gillian can expect a collaborative relationship. She helps clients identify strengths, try new ways of responding, and practice skills between sessions. The work centers on real-life problems and clear steps toward meaningful change.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that match what matters to you. It can help when stress, anxiety, or ongoing pain make it hard to move toward meaningful life goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches clear skills to change patterns that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, grief reactions, and many everyday stressors.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and comfort level. That might mean combining ACT, CBT, or solution-focused steps and adjusting as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people read facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Text and chat support ongoing processing between sessions and quick problem-solving during a busy day. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical schedules while keeping a steady path toward change.
