My name is Sherry Ackerman, LCSW and I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York with over 20 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have extensive experience working with children, adult and teens with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, school/career challenges, Autism and ADHD. I also have helped many adults who have experienced trauma and/or abuse and relationship/ career issues.
It takes courage to search for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards making a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
My ideal therapeutic approach is holistic. I tend to meet the client where they are at and use CBT or Cognitive Behavior Therapy to improve client's lifestyle.
My ideal client is someone who is ready and willing to work on themselves and is ready to see some real improvements in their lives.
