Sherilyn Cho , LMHC

Sherilyn Cho is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who brings a warm, practical approach to supporting children, adolescents, and families through life’s challenges. She holds the LMHC credential, which indicates state licensure to provide mental health counseling, and is also a National Certified Counselor, a national recognition of professional training and standards. Sherilyn’s background includes work as an intensive in-home therapist and as a skills trainer within school settings, where she helped young people and their families build coping tools and improve day-to-day functioning.

Sherilyn emphasizes collaboration and encouragement, helping clients identify strengths and practical strategies to manage stress, anxiety, family difficulties, grief, trauma, and other concerns. Her practice focuses on skill building and gradual changes that make daily life easier to navigate. She listens with an open mind and respects that each person has their own ways of coping, working together with clients to expand options and foster self-understanding.

With experience across developmental stages and family systems, Sherilyn supports people facing parenting challenges, relationship issues, addiction and substance use concerns, mood and attention difficulties, and transitions that require new coping skills. She aims to create a supportive space where clients can explore their goals, develop skills, and move toward more manageable routines and healthier relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Sherilyn integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her work online and by phone. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting clients to find their own solutions; it is useful for building self-awareness, improving relationships, and strengthening self-esteem. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help clients develop present-moment awareness and stress reduction skills that can support emotional regulation and coping with life changes. Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Sherilyn works collaboratively with clients to select methods that match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. Together they review what feels most helpful and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Sherilyn is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and geographic constraints. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations, making it easier to maintain consistent support while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
