About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Chery is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with six years of practice. She works with people who struggle with stress and anxiety, problems with substance use, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, and motivation. Her practice also addresses depression, trauma and abuse, anger, intimacy-related issues, and challenges tied to bipolar disorder.
She focuses on clear, practical conversation and collaborative planning. Sessions look at what is happening now and what small changes might help. She listens for patterns in thinking and behavior and then suggests straightforward strategies to try between sessions.
Elizabeth often helps people who are dealing with family conflict, caregiving stress, chronic health issues, or feelings of isolation. She can talk through concerns about commitment, communication problems, divorce or separation, and blended family dynamics. She also supports people facing cancer, hospice matters, or end-of-life caregiving stress.
Her approach uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address emotional and behavioral problems. She combines discussion with concrete skills practice so clients can test what works in daily life. Progress is tracked through agreed goals and regular check-ins.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skill building and behavioral change. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and actions and testing new behaviors in everyday situations to reduce anxiety and improve mood. This helps people notice what works and what needs adjustment.Another approach involves planning small, manageable steps to face feared situations or urges linked to substance use. These steps are designed to increase confidence and give concrete practice in making different choices when stress or cravings arise.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address. That collaboration continues as progress is reviewed and plans are adapted.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into a busy week. It also allows continued contact when travel or other commitments would otherwise interrupt care.
