Dealing with anxiety can be difficult. Fortunately, research has shown many strategies that can help alleviate some of the worry and discomfort. When we combine these techniques with a practice of self-empowerment, the possibilities of healing increase tenfold. One of the best things that we can do for ourselves is to learn to recognize, embrace, and utilize our inner strengths. My counseling service is designed to help you find your inner champion while providing you with teachable tools that you need to overcome current and future obstacles.

Hi, I'm Cheryl. I have 15+ years of experience as a Clinical Social Worker/therapist. I see therapy as a process of introspection with compassion. Within therapy, one learns to listen and respond with compassion for oneself and others. In therapy, one can develop the ability to expand awareness and be more flexible in making life choices. My specialties include depression, anxiety, loss and grief, relationship issues, gay and lesbian issues, and trauma. I use a blend of cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic models and work with individuals, couples and groups.

Anxiety and self-doubt. For women it causes issues at work, at home, and in your relationships. You worry if you’re enough, if you’re doing enough, and how you can make it better. You’re exhausted and it’s hard to keep going and be motivated. You’re not the best at taking care of yourself and often end up being last on the priority list. No stranger to the words “workaholic” or “over achiever,” you put a lot of time and energy into your work. Friends and family members have said “I don’t know how you keep it altogether.” You may have worn this as a badge of honor once but lately something has changed.

Our therapeutic experience will be a more interactive one. Whether you want to chat about current stressors, or have made the decision to work seriously on long-term goals for personal improvement in your emotional life, we will work together to determine where best to begin. In addition to working with clients around traditional counseling concerns such as depression, grief, loss, anxiety, stress, and addiction, I also focus on other challenges clients face.

I especially enjoy helping people through life transitions - from young adults adjusting to college to pregnant women and new moms. Adapting to new roles and making changes is exhausting, draining, and can leave you feeling lost and overwhelmed. Together, we can work to help you better manage these changes and integrate new roles - helping you feel empowered and more like yourself.

There is something in your life that is getting in the way of you living your best life. You might feel like you are surviving instead of thriving. Your day to day tasks and responsibilities may seem overwhelming and exhausting. It can seem daunting in today’s world to manage your obligations at home, work, school, with family and friends, and yourself. Perhaps you have intrusive thoughts that cause uncomfortable feelings like shame, guilt, embarrassment, sadness, or anxiety. Maybe it is hard to focus, complete tasks, sleep through the night, escape from nightmares, interact with others in a fulfilling way, or find peace.

Many women struggle with anxious feelings, isolation, and stress. Too often, though, such feelings are pushed by the wayside. With kids to care for, a career to maintain, and a home to manage, women often find it hard to hold it all together. Similarly, young women in college face intense deadlines and the novelty of living on their own for the first time. Even with a network of trusted friends and family members in place, it can be difficult to keep your head above water. During especially turbulent and unpredictable times, it’s useful to have a professional to turn to for guidance in authentic, unbiased ways.
