About Sherry
Sherry Escudero is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in New York. She has two decades of experience and brings that background to straightforward, practical conversations with people who feel stuck or overwhelmed. She trained at SUNY Oswego and has worked in community clinics, foster care settings, and with members of the military.
Those roles exposed her to a wide range of problems, from depression and anxiety to trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
She also helps people facing career stress, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. Sherry uses a person-centered style. That means she focuses first on building a working relationship and listening closely to what matters to each person.
Sessions aim to create a clearer sense of options and next steps rather than relying on jargon or one-size-fits-all solutions. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques when helpful. That approach looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns.
Many people find this useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with change. Sherry pays attention to practical concerns like caregiver stress, workplace issues, and feeling isolated. She supports people through grief, separation, and life transitions with steady, down-to-earth guidance.
If someone wants a calm, respectful space to talk things through and work toward clearer choices, Sherry offers that kind of support in her practice.

How client-centered and CBT work online
Sherry combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools adapted for online work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental dialogue where the person sets the pace and topics; this helps people feel heard and more able to try small steps toward change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits and practicing concrete skills to shift them, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, and then blend listening and skill-building in ways that make sense for their situation. The therapy plan can change as needs evolve so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for longer therapy sessions and visual cues. Phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions or use a shorter format when that suits their schedule. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy family and work obligations.
