Meet Cheryl

Many of the challenges we face have roots in our past. I work with you to process past experiences and emotions, uncover unhelpful coping patterns, and develop healthier strategies for managing difficult feelings. Together, we will set goals to improve your self-esteem, identify automatic negative thoughts you've been living with, and build new, positive beliefs based on your own character strengths. I believe therapy helps increase self-awareness, reduce shame and guilt, and create space for forgiveness of yourself and others.
