About Sheri
Sheri King, LCMHC, LMHC, uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. She brings nine years of counseling experience and a direct, supportive style that focuses on helping clients find their own answers. Clients can expect grounded guidance and steady encouragement in sessions.
King helps people regain a sense of personal power after loss, trauma, or difficult life changes. She works with those navigating grief, relationship problems, intimacy-related issues, and the effects of abuse or domestic violence.
Background and approach
Her approach aims to build self-confidence and clearer direction for daily life. Her background includes practice in New York and Vermont and nearly a decade helping people cope with panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and caregiver stress. She also addresses concerns that touch on aging, hospice and end-of-life issues, cancer, and pregnancy and childbirth.
Communication problems, divorce and separation, and blended family dynamics are among other areas she supports. Sheri is familiar with nontraditional relationship structures and sexual expression, including polyamory and BDSM or kink, and she helps people work through intimacy-related questions without judgment. She also assists those facing the emotional impact of serious illness and caregiving responsibilities.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps people can use between meetings. Sheri encourages small, achievable changes that build confidence over time. Her style is direct, compassionate, and focused on real-life results.

Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life
Many therapists use cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small changes in thinking and behavior. This approach can be useful for anxiety, panic, and mood struggles because it focuses on specific steps you can practice between sessions.Trauma-informed methods focus on safety, pacing, and rebuilding a sense of control after difficult experiences. These methods help people who have survived abuse, domestic violence, or other traumatic events to reduce symptoms and reconnect with everyday goals.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Sheri will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adjusts the plan as progress is made and encourages collaboration on what feels most helpful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and visual cues, while phone calls can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions or use brief, focused communication when that suits their schedule.
These options make it easier to keep consistent work on goals, practice new skills, and stay connected with a licensed professional from different locations.
