Cheryl Fraley
I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth, even when life feels overwhelming. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore the challenges you're facing and work together to uncover your strengths. Whether you are navigating a major life transition or looking to break old patterns, I am here to walk that path with you. My background in counseling and behavior analysis allows me to look at your journey through two lenses: one of deep empathy for your experience, and another of practical insight into the habits and patterns that shape your daily life. With over 25 years of professional experience, I offer a steady hand and a seasoned perspective to help you find clarity and peace of mind.
With over 25 years of experience, I excel at helping you turn complex emotional challenges into clear, manageable steps toward lasting personal growth.
First session
Our first meeting is about creating a comfortable space where you can speak freely and feel truly heard. We will focus on what is happening in your life right now and what you hope to achieve through our time together. I listen deeply to both your story and the patterns that influence your day-to-day well-being. You will leave our first session with a sense of hope and a clear understanding of how we will work together to translate your goals into meaningful, manageable change.

Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Throughout my over 25 years of practice, I have found that CBT is most effective when used as a practical tool to help you understand the link between your beliefs, thoughts, and actions. By drawing on my seasoned perspective to identify and challenge negative patterns, we can work together to create a more satisfying and intentional daily life.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
My seasoned approach is rooted in the belief that the strongest growth happens in a space of true partnership. Over the decades, I have refined my ability to provide a steady, non-judgmental environment where you are the driver of the sessions, empowered by a therapist who truly listens and supports your individual direction.
Positive Psychology
Having worked with thousands of individuals at various life stages, I’ve learned that focusing on what is "right" is often more powerful than focusing on what is "wrong." I use my background to help you leverage your existing strengths as a foundation for navigating current challenges and building a more resilient future.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
My approach to solution-focused therapy is grounded in over two decades of seeing what actually works in practice. I help you move past the "why" of the past and focus on the "how" of the present, providing you with practical, behavioral strategies to manage transitions and achieve immediate, meaningful results.
