About Bathsheba

Bathsheba Cherry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of experience. She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, and mood concerns. Parents often find her approach calm and practical when parenting and family issues feel overwhelming.

She keeps sessions warm and interactive. Conversations focus on concrete steps and coping tools rather than jargon. She listens without judgment and works with each person to set clear, achievable goals.

Background and approach

Her clinical work draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses client-centered methods to build trust and emotional safety. These approaches support work on relationship struggles, grief, trauma, and self-esteem problems.

Bathsheba has helped people facing substance use and behavioral concerns, including attention and conduct challenges in children and teens. She balances practical strategies with support for emotional processing when deeper issues like abandonment, guilt, or control problems come up. Sessions may address parenting questions, communication patterns, and life transitions in simple, step-by-step ways.

Her aim is to help people leave therapy with tools they can use at home and in daily life.

Therapeutic approaches used in online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small committed steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and habits, and teaching practical coping skills for mood, anxiety, and behavior concerns. Client-Centered Therapy creates a supportive space where the therapist listens deeply and follows the person's pace, which helps build trust and opens the way for other strategies to work.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, adjusting plans, and deciding together which strategies feel most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to continue work between appointments. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach coping skills, practice communication, and support parenting challenges in ways that are practical and adaptable to daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
