Background and approach
Her work over the past decade includes supporting people with addictions, anger, grief, intimacy concerns, and career or life transitions. She also has experience with veterans and people coping with trauma. In sessions she blends approaches to match each person's situation.
She draws from client-centered methods to build trust and uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. When trauma is a factor, she can integrate targeted methods aimed at processing traumatic memories. Cheryl emphasizes practical strategies you can use between sessions.
She helps clients develop skills for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and handling stressful parenting moments. Sessions aim to identify barriers and create steps toward clearer goals. She offers several remote formats so people can fit therapy into busy lives.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what matters to you, and helps clarify your goals so you feel heard and respected.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and change unhelpful patterns.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, targets traumatic memories and the emotions tied to them through a structured process. It can be used when past events continue to cause distress and interfere with daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss options and adapt methods based on your needs, goals, and preferences so you and the therapist choose a good fit collaboratively.
Online therapy makes regular sessions easier to fit into busy family and work routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support quick updates, emotional check-ins, and ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats give flexibility while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
