Sherri has been great so far and jumped right in. She offers patient centered care and didn't make us feel like we had to come up with all the content for our sessions. We appreciate her probing questions.

Sherri is a uniquely gifted therapist in the aspect of her ability to help you learn and see your life through questions, not statements or advice. She remembers my issues and empathizes with life’s struggles. I couldn’t be more impressed and happy with such a skilled counselor.

We have only had two meetings so far but the approach she has taken has been incredible. She has made me very comfortable from the beginning. Makes me very excited for each and every session going forward. As well leaves me light and joyous throughout the days and weeks to follow a session.

Sherri is amazing. I’m extremely thankful for her time and service. She is always punctual, a great listener and doesn’t use the time to push her personal experience or fill the time with irrelevance. I’ve had this happen before. She is there to listen to you and help get you through the complex emotions of day to day life. She makes you better and gives you confidence in both your career and personal life. I’m a fanboy of Sherri.

Sherri is really awesome. She really takes the necessary steps to get to know you and what you're going through. She is able to make the applicable connections to really help you understand the "why you feel the way that you do". I just started with her a couple of weeks ago and I am very impressed. Putting aside the fact that I am also a clinician with years of experience, I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing help with situations in their lives because she has certainly helped me.
Work with me!
