Approach to Therapy Online and Practical Support
Sheryl integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice to meet a range of needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting, respectful therapeutic relationship and supporting clients to explore their values and goals; it is helpful for improving self-esteem, life purpose, and relationships. CBT addresses the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by teaching practical skills to reframe unhelpful thinking and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. DBT offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for clients dealing with trauma responses, relationship challenges, or persistent stress.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work, and Sheryl collaborates with each person to tailor techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they identify which strategies feel most useful and adapt the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Sheryl is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, allow ongoing access to support between appointments, and provide flexible ways to engage in the therapeutic process.
