About Sheri

Sheri Hunt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar symptoms, addiction concerns, relationship and family stresses, and parenting challenges. Sessions are presented in plain language and focus on practical steps people can use between meetings.

Sheri emphasizes that clients are the experts on their own stories. She listens to each person’s goals and works alongside them to identify small, usable changes. Typical early work includes clarifying what matters most and choosing one manageable step to try between sessions.

Her practice draws on several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice thoughts and try different responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy explores values and committed action. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness offer concrete skills for managing strong emotions and impulsive urges.

Sheri has a background across community and clinical settings in Kentucky. That experience shapes a straightforward style that mixes skill teaching, problem solving, and supportive reflection. She often works with people dealing with grief, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, and co-occurring mood or substance concerns.

People who reach out can expect clear explanations of approaches and focused work on everyday problems. The first session usually reviews current concerns, past supports, and practical goals for the next few weeks. Follow-up sessions keep attention on what has changed and what still needs adjustment.

How Sheri uses evidence-based approaches in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It focuses on noticing internal experiences without getting stuck and choosing actions that match long-term goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior, and teaches practical techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness teach concrete skills for handling intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sheri will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted as needs change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to continue work between in-person commitments. Licensed professionals can deliver the same skills-focused work online as in person, and sessions often include homework, skills practice, and follow-up discussion to support progress.
