About Cherie

Cherie Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with nine years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addictions, grief, and codependency-related struggles. Sessions also address issues that arise from caregiving, workplace strain, and big life changes.

Cherie uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice what matters to them and change unhelpful patterns. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to teach skills for managing thoughts and feelings. Attachment-based ideas and client-centered listening guide conversations about relationships and boundaries.

In sessions Cherie helps people untangle habits like people-pleasing or losing themselves around a partner's moods or drinking. She breaks concerns into small steps and practices realistic skills during and between meetings. This gives people tools to say no more often and take clearer actions that match their values.

Cherie also supports those coping with trauma, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood challenges, and intimacy-related issues. She pays attention to family of origin patterns and communication problems that keep repeating in later relationships.

People can expect steady, direct collaboration aimed at practical changes. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session where goals and next steps are agreed on.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small, practical actions even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and making changes that match what matters to someone. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and shifting repetitive thought patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cherie will collaborate with each client to see which methods fit their goals and daily reality. Together they set clear, manageable aims and review what is helping as work progresses.

Confirm current session formats before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to keep regular appointments around work or caregiving. Talk with the therapist during the first meeting about session length, pacing, and any practical adjustments that make it easier to use the skills learned in session.
