Sherri Brothers, LPC

Sherri Brothers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with more than 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families. Over her career she has worked within a local social service agency, developing particular expertise with people affected by the child welfare system and those healing from trauma. She helps clients navigate relationship challenges, stress and anxiety, adjustment concerns, grief, and intimacy-related issues, and she brings focused experience in LGBTQ matters, adoption and foster care, and family of origin dynamics.

Sherri earned her Bachelor’s degree from Virginia Tech and completed a Master’s degree at the University of Connecticut, where she specialized in Marriage and Family Therapy. That training provides a foundation for understanding how personal history and family systems shape current patterns, and she integrates that perspective into practical, goal-oriented work. Sherri draws on a range of clinical approaches, including cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based techniques, to support improvements in mood, sleep, self-esteem, and coping with compassion fatigue.

She welcomes people of all races, religions, sexual orientations, and gender identities and looks for strengths that clients can build on to move forward. Sherri approaches each case by assessing current concerns, exploring motivation for counseling, and identifying clear goals for therapy so time together is used purposefully. She is committed to helping clients find direction and resilience as they address life transitions and ongoing challenges.
