About Cheryl

Cheryl Sessoms is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 20 years of experience. She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what feels overwhelming. She emphasizes plain conversation and steady support so clients can take practical steps forward.

Cheryl helps people manage stress and anxiety, including panic disorder and panic attacks. She also supports those coping with trauma, abuse, and grief. Career concerns, self-esteem, and struggles with motivation or loneliness are part of her focus.

Her approach centers on listening carefully and responding to the person in front of her. Cheryl uses client-centered methods to honor each person's pace and priorities. She blends emotionally-focused work to address relationship and feeling patterns, and mindfulness to build calm in daily life.

In sessions she aims to reduce overwhelm with clear, manageable strategies. Conversations often include identifying small actions, practicing grounding skills, and shifting thought patterns that intensify worry or self-doubt. Progress is measured in what clients can do between sessions as well as what changes in how they see themselves.

Cheryl welcomes people who are taking the first step toward change and offers steady guidance along the way. She accepts international clients and works in English. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options to make sure they fit their needs.

How Cheryl's Approaches Work Online

Cheryl uses client-centered therapy to place the person’s needs and pace at the center of each session. This means the conversation follows what matters most to the client, and the therapist reflects back what she hears so goals become clearer.

She also incorporates emotionally-focused therapy to help people identify and name core feelings that drive patterns of worry or withdrawal. This work can be useful for managing panic, improving self-worth, and repairing how someone responds to stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cheryl will work collaboratively to decide whether client-centered conversation, emotionally-focused work, or mindfulness exercises fit a person’s goals. She adapts techniques based on what the client needs and prefers rather than insisting on one method.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and fewer barriers to regular check-ins. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions are scheduled. Online sessions can support steady practice of grounding skills, short check-ins during stressful periods, and step-by-step work on coping with panic and anxiety.
