CBT-Informed Care and Flexible Online Support

Cheryl uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, to help clients identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, and other mood concerns. CBT often includes practical exercises and skills practice to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Alongside CBT-informed techniques, Cheryl emphasizes skills-based coping strategies tailored to each person's needs, such as tools for managing stress, improving sleep, and navigating relationship or parenting challenges. These approaches focus on concrete steps clients can use between sessions to build resilience.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheryl will work with each client to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and enable consistent work with licensed professionals and therapists regardless of location.
