Sherrie Kuns-Mackert

Sherrie Kuns-Mackert is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of practice in California. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, compassion fatigue, and challenges with attention and focus. Her approach is straightforward and respectful, and she aims to meet people where they are.

Sherrie listens for what matters most and adapts conversations to each person's needs. She focuses on practical problem solving for emotions and behaviors that feel out of control. That can mean learning ways to reduce reactivity, manage overwhelming feelings, or rebuild concentration and daily routines.

Her background spans three decades of direct clinical work in community and clinical settings across California. Over that time she has supported people facing chronic pain, medical illness, addiction, dissociation, attachment concerns, and trauma related to disasters or first responder duty. This breadth helps her spot patterns that link mood, memory, and behavior.

Sessions emphasize clear goals, step-by-step skills, and honest feedback. Sherrie tailors a plan with the person in the room rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method. She names small, practical steps to try between meetings and reviews what helps.

Those who feel worn down by caregiving, work stress, or repeated anger episodes often find focus in this approach. Sherrie encourages patience with progress and normalizes the courage it takes to ask for help. If you choose to begin, she guides the matching and scheduling process so you can take the next step.

Approaches to managing anger and stress online

Sherrie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on emotion regulation and practical skills. One common approach teaches people how to notice triggers, slow down reactions, and choose different responses. This helps when anger or impulsivity leads to regrets or damaged relationships.

Another useful approach centers on attention and coping strategies for anxiety and depression. It breaks problems into small, manageable tasks and builds habits that support concentration and mood. These methods are helpful for people struggling with compassion fatigue, chronic illness, or repeated low mood.

Finding the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what actually helps. This shared process makes it easier to pick approaches that fit daily life and personal rhythm.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep treatment going across life changes while focusing on the same practical skills used in in-person care.
