Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Cheri Mills draws on client-centered therapy to create a respectful, collaborative space where the therapist follows the client's lead and helps amplify their existing strengths - this approach is useful for people seeking empathetic support and clearer self-understanding. She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, a practical method often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. When appropriate, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are integrated to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills for clients facing intense emotions or relationship challenges.

Finding the right approach is a process that Cheri Mills treats as collaborative - she works with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting strategies as treatment progresses. This collaborative decision making helps ensure the work stays relevant and achievable.

Cheri offers online sessions through video calls, phone appointments, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow clients to fit therapy into varied schedules and life situations, making it easier to receive ongoing support from licensed professionals and therapists without sacrificing continuity of care.
