About Sheri

Sheri Hunt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Kentucky with 15 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, mood concerns such as bipolar disorder and depression, and issues like parenting and relationship strain. Sheri also supports those coping with addiction, grief, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Sheri frames work in straightforward terms. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and helps them use their strengths to manage hard problems. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer thinking, and habits that reduce day-to-day distress.

Her background includes a long career in mental health that spans direct clinical work and supporting people through crisis and longer-term challenges. That history informs a pragmatic approach to therapy and to building coping tools that fit ordinary routines.

Therapeutic methods Sheri uses include cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and actions, and mindfulness practices to increase present-moment focus. She also draws on client-centered listening and dialectical behavior skills when they are useful.

When working together Sheri helps people set achievable goals and practices between sessions. She pays attention to family and parenting pressures, work stress, and life changes that affect mood and behavior. People are encouraged to try small changes and track what helps.

To begin, clients complete an intake process and schedule an initial meeting. Sheri’s approach is practical and focused on everyday problems and supports that make routines more manageable.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Sheri commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in client work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises and practice. ACT emphasizes clarifying values and taking actions that align with those values while accepting difficult feelings when they arise.

She also integrates mindfulness practices to help with attention, emotional regulation, and stress reduction. Mindfulness involves short exercises that train noticing thoughts and sensations without judgment and can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sheri will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adjust methods collaboratively as progress is made. The plan can shift over time based on what is helping and what is not.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Practical benefits of online sessions often include fitting therapy into work and family schedules, doing shorter check-ins when needed, and choosing quieter times that work for the client. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, ACT, and mindfulness exercises to remote sessions to focus on real-world changes and daily routines.
