About Cherie
Cherie uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice what matters and take small steps toward more satisfying days. Sessions often include learning new coping skills, practicing different ways of thinking, and trying experiments between meetings. She pays attention to how attachment and past relationships show up in current struggles.
Her background includes nine years of clinical experience working with people who face grief, trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, and challenges around intimacy or relationships. She also supports those dealing with bipolar disorder, substance use concerns, and co-occurring issues. The LGBT community is specifically noted as a focus, and she offers a respectful approach to identity-related concerns.
Cherie aims to help clients build resilience and clearer priorities during times of transition. She encourages practical plans that fit real life, not abstract goals. People leave with concrete strategies they can try between sessions.

Approaches that translate well to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take steps toward them, even when hard feelings are present. It helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching practical actions tied to what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, behaviors, and emotions and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for managing anxiety, stress, and mood symptoms through skill practice and short experiments.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people recognize and shift repetitive ways of relating that affect intimacy and trust.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That choice can change over time as problems evolve and new priorities emerge.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Confirm current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Many people find that working with licensed professionals remotely still allows for meaningful skill practice, homework between sessions, and steady progress toward clearer goals.
