About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Cherry is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida. She focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, depression, grief, and challenges tied to life transitions. Her approach is down-to-earth and respectful, aimed at helping people find manageable steps forward rather than labeling them.

Her style is warm and interactive. She listens first, then works with each person to create a plan that fits their situation and goals.

Background and approach

Elizabeth uses clear, practical techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, and solution-focused work. She has nearly two decades of experience as a mental health professional, which brings practical problem-solving skills to sessions. That background supports work on things like anger, self-esteem, caregiver stress, communication problems, and postpartum mood concerns.

Elizabeth also addresses issues such as ADHD-related struggles, social anxiety, seasonal mood changes, and the emptiness that sometimes follows major life events. She includes mindfulness tools to help people manage stress in the moment and CBT strategies to change unhelpful thinking patterns. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs and pace.

She aims to make therapy a collaborative process where realistic, short-term goals lead to clearer routines and better daily functioning.

Approaches and how online sessions work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s priorities. It helps people feel heard and guides sessions around what matters most to them rather than a preset agenda. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Elizabeth will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That collaboration means the plan can change as progress is made or new needs appear. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for busy parents and caregivers. Video and phone sessions allow real-time conversation, while chat and messaging make it easier to check in between sessions. These options help make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into a family routine.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
