About Sherry
Sherry Gould-Hillhouse is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as trauma, addiction, depression, bipolar, grief, and relationship and intimacy concerns. Sherry also lists areas like codependency, attachment and abandonment issues, eating and body image problems, and compassion fatigue among her focus areas.
Her style is straightforward and person-centered. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and helps them sort through thoughts and feelings at a manageable pace. Sessions involve listening, reflection, and practical skills pulled from several therapeutic approaches.
Sherry draws on approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Client-Centered methods, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That mix is used to address emotional regulation, relationship patterns, and coping with change. She helps people develop clearer boundaries, manage intense emotions, and notice patterns that keep causing pain.
She notes a particular interest in addiction and trauma-related concerns and offers a sliding scale to help with affordability. Sessions are arranged through the platform process: complete the short questionnaire, and schedule a first session once matched. Language of service is English and she works within Texas practice parameters.
People who frequently put others first, struggle to say no, or feel lost in relationships may find the kinds of practical tools and relational focus Sherry uses to be relevant to their situation.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online work fits
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and getting unstuck from patterns like people-pleasing.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It looks at how people relate, where boundaries are weak, and how to build more secure ways of connecting. This approach can be helpful for intimacy concerns, abandonment fears, and codependency patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to weigh needs, goals, and comfort with different techniques and then adjusts the plan over time. That collaboration helps focus on manageable steps rather than a one-size-fits-all method.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they can fit therapy into work breaks, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when life is busy. Online work can support consistent practice of coping skills between meetings and makes it easier to schedule regular follow-ups without rearranging a whole day.
