Dr. Cheryl Mansfield

Dr. Cheryl Mansfield helps people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and relationship strain. She is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, and also holds an LCSW. She brings twenty years of practice to sessions with a straightforward, calm approach that aims to reduce daily distress.

She listens first and helps clients name what feels most urgent. Then she and the client map out practical steps to reduce emotional overload. Sessions often focus on building simple coping skills and clearer communication methods to ease tension in close relationships.

Dr. Mansfield uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. She draws on client-centered techniques to follow each person’s lead, and cognitive-behavioral tools to change unhelpful thought and action patterns. Solution-focused strategies help set achievable goals and track progress between meetings.

Her background includes outpatient, hospital, and military settings. That variety shaped a flexible, results-oriented style that treats everyday struggles as real problems needing usable answers. She emphasizes strengths and looks for resources clients already have.

People come to her for help with grief, trauma, addiction concerns, parenting stress, intimacy issues, and coping with life changes. She aims to make therapy understandable and useful, with clear ideas clients can try between sessions. If you want practical direction and steady support, she helps you plan the next steps.

How her approaches translate to online work

Dr. Mansfield often uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person’s needs. That approach means she follows the client’s concerns and offers space to talk through what matters most, which can work well over remote sessions for ongoing problems like anger or relationship strain.

She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy, helping clients spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and homework-friendly, so people can practice techniques between meetings and report back during online sessions.

Finding the right combination of methods is a team effort. The therapist will review your goals and preferences, then suggest which approaches to emphasize. Together you can try ideas and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use remote sessions to keep continuity of care and help clients apply new skills in daily life.
