About Cherri

Cherri Castellon is a licensed clinical social worker with two decades of experience. She holds LCSW and LISW-CP credentials and practices from South Carolina. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and relationship concerns with respect and sensitivity.

She works with issues such as low self-esteem, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She also helps with communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, veteran and armed forces issues, multicultural concerns, and self-love. Her approach is practical and tailored to each person’s situation.

In sessions she listens first and builds a plan that fits the person in front of her. Conversations are shaped to match a client’s goals, pace, and daily life. She emphasizes tools and steps that people can try between meetings to make steady progress.

Cherri aims to create a supportive space where people can explore what gets in the way of a happier life. She frames change as a process that starts with small, achievable moves. Her role is to support and empower clients while they try new ways of coping and relating.

She invites anyone thinking about therapy to take a first step by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session. That initial step helps clarify goals and how best to begin working together.

Approaches that guide online care

Cherri uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach she uses helps people learn and practice skills for managing intense emotions and anger. It teaches specific strategies to notice triggers, pause, and choose different responses over time. Another approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them against real life. This helps reduce anxiety and depressive thinking by trying small behavioral experiments and new ways of thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about their goals, life demands, and what methods feel most comfortable. That collaborative process shapes which techniques are used and how they are paced so the plan fits daily life.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the profile does not list formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, cut out travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks at work or between errands. It can also let people use shorter or longer sessions when needed and focus on homework between meetings to reinforce skills learned in sessions.
