Therapeutic Approaches for Online Healing and Recovery

Sherry draws on client-centered therapy to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients set the pace and direction of work while the therapist supports their self-exploration and strengths. This approach helps people facing self-esteem struggles, life transitions, and the aftermath of trauma to feel heard and validated.

Trauma-focused therapy is used to address the impact of abuse, sexual assault, and other traumatic experiences through targeted techniques that reduce symptoms and promote adaptive coping. Motivational interviewing complements these methods by helping clients resolve ambivalence and build internal motivation for change, which is especially helpful for addictions and substance-use concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Sherry collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time so therapy remains responsive and client-focused.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to engage in care in ways that match their schedules and comfort levels. Working with licensed professionals in these formats makes it possible to receive consistent support, skill-building, and guidance without requiring in-person visits.
