I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S). I am licensed in Texas and Virginia. I provide a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with no judgment. For example, I help adults struggling with career stress, relational challenges, and challenges with productivity (i.e., starting and completing tasks). I also work collaboratively with clients to identify underlying issues, set goals, and develop personalized treatment plans. I guide clients through the process to help build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and foster personal growth.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
We will begin the therapeutic process with introductions, review disclosures & consent, and address any questions or curiosity about therapy. Then dive into the specific challenges they are facing. This will help me create a tailored plan with goals to work through in follow-up sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I help clients identify and change negative thought patterns, guiding them to develop healthier coping strategies and achieve lasting change. As a Solution-Focused Brief Therapist, I work with clients in quickly identifying strengths and resources to create practical, goal-oriented solutions, fostering progress.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I enjoy working with adults from all walks of life including young adults in faced with challenges in professional settings, all ages of individuals dating with a purpose, and seeking companionship. My clients are ready for change willing to improve, but lack the "know-how" to implement the tools needed to make their goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious about life, relationships with others, and their careers.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have extended training and multiple years of experience helping my clients overcome distorted and/or intrusive thoughts by reframing unhealthy thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. This way of being often leads to worry, doubt, and self-defeating thoughts, yielding negative life outcomes both personally and/or professionally.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I have extended training with multiple years of experience in guiding my clients through a process of finding healthy solutions to problems they are facing by setting goals, self-reflection, and progress monitoring toward independence.
Supportive
As a trained and experienced mental health therapist, I use supportive therapy to provide a safe, affirming space that fosters emotional stability and personal growth. Through active listening, encouragement, and strength-based strategies, I help clients manage stress, navigate life challenges, and build resilience. This approach is particularly effective for individuals seeking practical support and enhanced coping skills without the need for intensive psychodynamic exploration.

Cheryl is a fantastic therapist. She exhibits all of the traits and characteristics a patient wants/needs: empathetic, listens so well, friendly, authentic, very solution-oriented, knowledgeable and CARING. I feel very lucky having Cheryl help me navigate through some difficult life circumstances. ☺️

First session in the books and I can finally say, after 13 years of avoiding therapy - I did it! Going into this I was hesitant on the connections I would form and having to go through several therapists to get to "THE ONE". But, Mrs. Boyland knew exactly what questions to ask! She's genuinely wants to help me with my goals and seems to understand the game plan. Thank you for being who you are and loving your position. BOOK HER NOW!!
