Cheryl Loomis, LCSW

Cheryl Loomis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Maine, Massachusetts, Oregon, and Washington with 18 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, career challenges, coping with life changes, and attention and focus issues such as ADHD. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping people manage day-to-day pressures.

Cheryl draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common problems. She helps people who struggle with communication breakdowns, trust issues, and emotional distance in close relationships. Work-related stress and career transitions are frequent topics in sessions, along with managing anxiety and improving focus.

She also supports people facing long-term problems like chronic illness, caregiver stress, aging concerns, and complicated feelings tied to family of origin. Cheryl works through specific behaviors such as impulsivity and hoarding by breaking problems into manageable steps. She pays attention to how life events like divorce, immigration, or disasters affect everyday functioning.

Sessions emphasize practical skills - clearer communication, planning for change, and coping strategies for intense emotions. Cheryl adapts conversations to what the person needs and prefers, and she collaborates on a plan that fits their situation. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

People who choose her can expect a direct, respectful style focused on solutions and coping. Her multi-state licensure and long experience make her familiar with varied life situations. To start, clients answer a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session to outline goals and next steps.
