Greetings. I am a professional counselor with over 18 years experience working in the areas of grief, trauma, anticipatory grief, caregiver stress, end of life issues, depression, life changes, stress, and chronic illness. I am certified as a grief counselor (GC-C) and as a grief counselor specializing in children and adolescents (GCCA-C). I am committed to assisting you with identifying the changes you want in your life and then exploring different strategies to help you achieve your goals.

I would describe my approach to therapy as eclectic. I work with the individual to find the approach that best meets their needs and work to provide the tools that are needed to effect change and promote growth.

Finally, I view the therapeutic alliance as a partnership requiring mutual trust, respect, honesty, communication, and commitment to do the work.

Hopefully, what I have shared here will help you choose a therapist that best meets your needs. Should you choose me, I look forward to our journey together.

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.

The best thing I’ve ever done for myself is starting therapy. I’m thankful I was referred to BetterHelp because I don’t think I could’ve found a therapist more perfect for me and my needs. Sheryl is very attentive and I can tell she truly cares about me as a patient. The way she uses her own personal experiences makes me feel at ease in knowing I’m not alone in my struggles. I’m thankful for the past few months and excited to continue my mental health journey with Sheryl as my therapist

I appreciate Sheryl much more than she probably knows. She’s understanding and supportive, while still being observant of ways that I can improve — which I appreciate. I started therapy with the goal of creating healthy (yet necessary) boundaries, learning how to better my relationships with family members, and developing the unique habits to MAINTAIN all these tools. Sheryl has genuinely helped me tackle all of these things, and I’m so excited to continue my sessions with her.

I have been working with Sheryl for almost a year now and she is truly fantastic! She has been helping me through some major life decisions. She has a way to pinpoint the core issues, and offer her guidance in a very compassionate, soothing and sometimes funny way. Whenever I needed support in between sessions, she has been quick to respond. I really appreciate her support (and sense of humor). Give her a try!

I was sceptacle to join Better Help. I've been going to therapists for many years and I have tools to cope with anxiety and PTSD but this last traumatic life experience left me needing a professional. I was paired with Sheryl. She taught me new ways on overcoming my PTSD. She listened to every detail and had feedback. I am able to use the techniques she's shown me to overcome my PTSD. She has knowledge of many new and upcoming therapies. I will recommend her to anyone who is having issues with PTSD! She also helps with day to day dilemmas. She takes the time to get to know you and actually listens! Which is hard to find nowadays. Sheryl is a great therapist and I look forward to our talks!

I am really looking forward to diving even deeper into identifying my triggers and coming up with ways of overcoming them with Sheryl's help. She is so attentive in our video calls and sends me messages occasionally throughout the week to check in. She really helps me to feel encouraged to get back on track if I fall off a bit.
