I’m so grateful to have found Sherry on betterhelp. It took a little bit to find the right therapist, but I’m glad that I hung in there. Sherry has been so helpful and is really knowledgeable in many different therapy modalities. I’m finally on a healing journey thanks to her!

More about Sherry

Welcome. You have taken the first step in healing by simply Showing Up and I would be honored to guide you in your healing.

My philosophy is rooted in five foundational aspects. The first is Compassionate Curiosity, question everything. The second is Angeles Arrien’s, “The Four-Fold Way” - Show Up, Pay Attention, Tell the Truth (without judgement), and Don’t Be Attached to the Results. The third is Mindfulness and Beginner’s Mind, particularly in observing and questioning our automatic thoughts and beliefs. The fourth is, each of us is on our own journey, and it is not my place to, nor could I, dictate yours. And the fifth is, Acceptance over Resistance.

Regardless of a your “presenting problem”, I generally come from an attachment perspective. I am fully trained in three trauma treatment modalities; Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brain Spotting (BSP), and the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM). In addition, I have a lot of training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). While I am trained in these modalities, I do not use any of them independently. Rather, I use them in combination...along with my own additions and modifications.

I began my career in 2000 working in a residential treatment center for eating disorders. In 2002, I received my Master's in Clinical Psychology at Antioch University in Los Angeles. I've spent the majority of my career working in residential and day treatment programs and I have a private practice in Woodland Hills, California.

My specialties are eating disorders, trauma, couples and all of the aspects within each (depression, anxiety, relationship issues, etc.)

I very much look forward to meeting you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Sherry has helped me overcome a traumatic experience which I had this year through EMDR therapy. I am so grateful that I feel much lighter and I am ready for the next step in my life. Thank you Sherry!

Sherry is already helping me through my trauma using a variety of techniques. She is very caring and kind in our sessions. She has the right balance of giving me freedom to express myself, and knowing when to guide me through different techniques.
