About Cheri
Cheri Epps is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of counseling experience. She holds LCSW and LICSW credentials and works from Texas. She helps people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and self-esteem struggles.
Cheri focuses on practical steps people can use right away. She listens for what is most pressing, then suggests small, manageable changes to try between sessions. Conversations cover coping skills, ways to handle strong emotions, and methods for improving connection and communication.
Her approach is straightforward. Sessions include talking things through, practicing new responses, and checking what worked. She aims to help people build clarity and confidence so daily life feels more manageable.
Cheri also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, body image, caregiver stress, and difficulties after divorce or separation. She notices how these patterns affect decision making and relationships, and works with people to reduce their impact on day-to-day life.
Over time Cheri supports clients to set realistic goals and measure progress. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the work and adapts suggestions to what fits each person. To begin, people are invited to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How evidence-based methods translate to online work
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on learning new ways to respond to thoughts and feelings. Cognitive approaches help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different responses, which can reduce distress in social situations and with triggers. Skills-based approaches teach concrete strategies for managing strong emotions, handling cravings, and improving communication in real-world interactions.Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will review what has helped before and what goals matter now, then recommend approaches to try. This is collaborative - adjustments are made based on your feedback and how the techniques feel in practice.
Please confirm available session formats before booking because the biography did not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time, and have shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow consistent follow-up on skills practice and quicker scheduling around work or caregiving commitments.
