About Katherine
Dr. Sherman uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. She draws on a decade of clinical experience to help people reduce anxiety, manage stress, and cope with depression. Her work includes addressing sleep problems, self-esteem, and anger so people can feel more in control of their reactions.
She also supports people facing attention difficulties such as ADHD, as well as specific problems like obsessive thoughts, phobias, panic attacks, and trichotillomania. For those dealing with long-term health issues, she helps with the emotional and practical challenges that come with chronic pain, illness, or medical treatments.
Parents can get one-on-one guidance on parenting strategies for disruptive behavior and other child-related concerns; this is taught in individual sessions rather than family or couples therapy. Dr. Sherman communicates clearly about techniques and gives concrete exercises to practice between meetings.
She holds a Florida psychologist credential, FL Psychologist PY9474, and brings ten years of post-degree experience. Sessions are conducted in English. To begin, patients follow the platform's Start Therapy process and complete a short questionnaire to match and schedule with her.

How CBT-based online work can help with anger and anxiety
Dr. Sherman practices Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing the thoughts and behaviors that fuel strong emotions. CBT uses clear steps and exercises to reduce anxious thinking, manage mood, and improve reactions to stressful situations.Her approach also emphasizes teaching practical skills that people can use between sessions, such as problem-solving, behavior experiments, and sleep strategies. These techniques are useful for anger, panic, phobias, repetitive behaviors, and the everyday worries that get in the way of daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. If a method isn’t working, adjustments are made together until a better fit is found.
For practical matters, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine, limit travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to everyday environments so therapy tools can be practiced between appointments.
