About Cheri

Cheri Pfeiffer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Delaware with 16 years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. Cheri also supports people adjusting to major life changes, including medical diagnoses and terminal illness.

Cheri spends sessions listening and helping people name what feels most urgent. She frames therapy as a partnership and asks questions to clarify goals. Conversations are practical and focused on coping skills people can use between meetings.

She has significant experience supporting LGBT adults and the LGBTQ community. That work includes talking through relationship and intimacy concerns, identity-related stress, and self-esteem. Cheri also addresses addictions and anger when these get in the way of daily life.

Her background includes work with aging and geriatric issues, cancer, caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and HIV/AIDS related needs. She brings this clinical experience to discussions about mood disorders, isolation, and complicated grief.

Sessions aim to translate concerns into clear next steps. Cheri helps people try new ways of coping, set small achievable goals, and check which strategies work. To begin, she asks about what the person wants to change and helps schedule the next practical step.

BHow sessions work

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often include a focus on skills practice and problem-solving. One common approach emphasizes learning concrete coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breathing strategies, thought-challenging, and step-by-step behavioral experiments to reduce avoidance.

Another strategy centers on grief and loss work that helps people name what was lost, organize memories, and build ways to remember while continuing daily life. For people facing medical or end-of-life issues, sessions can focus on practical decision-making, symptom-related coping, and managing caregiver stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. This process is shared and practical rather than prescriptive.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when a full hour is not needed. International clients are accepted, and scheduling can be arranged to fit different time zones; verify specific options when you begin.
