About Sherry

Sherry Holder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with four years of professional experience. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and depression. Sherry uses practical conversation and focused strategies to help clients notice what matters to them and take small steps toward clearer choices.

She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns that keep them stuck. Those approaches are paired with Client-Centered and mindfulness-based work to slow things down and make responses feel more intentional. Sherry also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotions feel intense and skills for regulation are useful.

Sessions are an open place to talk about thoughts and feelings without judgment. She listens for the ways people put others first or avoid their own needs, and then helps them test different behaviors in day-to-day life. Practical tools and short exercises are used between sessions so changes can be tried out and adjusted.

Sherry has experience with issues tied to family of origin, attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, dissociation, and codependency. She also works with panic, mood and personality-related struggles where skills and values-based choices can reduce distress.

People who want direct, straightforward conversation about relationship patterns and everyday coping find her approach accessible. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online pathway.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values. It helps when people feel stuck repeating the same people-pleasing patterns or avoiding difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers concrete steps to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, mood shifts, and stressful thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, day-to-day challenges, and preferences, then try methods that seem to fit. That collaborative stance means approaches can be mixed and adjusted over time based on what helps the person manage relationships and stress more effectively.

The original biography did not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful for fitting therapy into a busy week, having shorter check-ins when needed, or avoiding travel time. Online sessions can also make it easier to practice skills between meetings and apply changes directly to everyday situations.
