I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I’m dedicated to providing a compassionate and supportive space where individuals and couples can navigate life's challenges. Whether you're facing trauma, overwhelming stress, or seeking deeper self-discovery, my approach centers on empathy, collaboration, and a genuine commitment to your healing journey. Together, we’ll work to restore balance and help you reconnect with a sense of well-being.

As a therapist, I’m here to help you understand your feelings and why certain things might feel hard or confusing. Together, we’ll explore your thoughts, emotions, and the ways you react to different situations. Think of it like solving a puzzle—sometimes, we just need to find the missing pieces to feel better! In our time together, we’ll talk, play, and discover new ways to handle big emotions, build confidence, and strengthen relationships with yourself and others. You’re not alone, and I’m here to help you feel more like you. Think of it as a journey of self-discovery, with me guiding and supporting you every step of the way. 💛

As a Doctor of Psychology and Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for 45+ years, I am experienced in helping my clients deal with issues such as Loss and Grief Recovery, Substance Abuse, Anger Management, Crisis Counseling, Stress Reduction, Depression and Anxiety. I provide a calm, empathetic, and nurturing environment where you will feel heard, and most importantly, understood. Together we will work on ways to help you understand your feelings and compulsions. My grieving clients experience closure through writing letters to their loved ones who have died. This letter writing is effective for all forms of loss. Reading the letters aloud is very healing as it encourages acceptance, and permits moving on to build a life filled with love and laughter. I've dealt with my own grief, loss and growth by writing a book series, "The Adventures of the Angel Oleo," as well as "The Dog Bible for Humans - Advice from Dogs to Humans of All Ages." I hope you have an opportunity to read one of my books and that I get to help you, and someone you know.

Becoming a therapist was my first choice, a passion I discovered during my sophomore year as an undergrad. Of course, it was not my first major, as I thought I would attend medical school. However, due to a car accident, I had to take a break from classes with laboratory courses, which led me to psychology. The best methods to pique anyone's interest are, in my opinion, abnormal psychology and personality psychology; they started my passion for learning more. After earning my Bachelor's degree in Psychology, I applied for my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy with a specialty in Latino Family Studies. At my first internship, my mentor placed me on my trajectory of working with children with trauma. Eighteen years later, I am passionate about learning everything I can and doing as much research as mental health evolves its approach to treatment. Being one who loves learning, this is a perfect fit for me, as you can never know everything in mental health treatment. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) specializing in trauma with a subspecialty in sexual abuse, working with victims and sexually-abusive youth. I help people with anxiety, depression, PTSD, sexual addictions, sexual dysfunctions, and ADHD.

I use Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused -Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Art and Play therapy, among other techniques.

As an integrative therapist, I use the approach/es that most resonate with you to help you understand the causes to your distress as well as identify ways to help you cope in a personalized manner and attain your goals. With validation, compassion, an open-mindset, and flexibility to healing, I can help you be, do and feel better to live a happier life. Taking care of yourself and establishing your boundaries are key. Please feel free to ask me any questions, and I'll reply as soon as possible. I deeply care about each person I do therapy for and can provide necessary referrals. You've made it this far! Continue taking the steps towards booking your therapy session and strengthen yourself. My best to you!

Parenting can be tough. You wonder if your child will ever grow out of their excessive worries, meltdowns, or tantrums, and you become exhausted and feel guilty for being frustrated with them. The nightly battles with homework and reports from school are wearing you down. The power struggle with your spirited toddler or your strong-willed adolescent may leave you overwhelmed and wondering what you can do differently. Communicating and feeling unified with your partner or caregiver may be difficult or your styles may be different, creating a state of uncertainty or chaos in the home. It is okay to feel overwhelmed. It is also okay to strive for more. You know the potential your child has, and living in a world where you can better help them navigate their development is possible. My goal is to empower you and your child by finding effective parenting strategies and coping skills that work for your family, allowing your child to thrive. I work with children, families, parents, and caregivers to ease the tension that emotions, outbursts, tantrums, and anxiety can bring children and their families.

Children are welcome between the ages of 2 and 7 years for Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). Let's begin working towards a more peaceful and intentional parenting experience. I welcome all families from all walks of life.

Have you been struggling with a mental block that has been keeping you from reaching your goals or living according to your values? Are you tired of just surviving instead of living? You've come to the right place, and I want to reassure you that it is possible for change and things to get better. My name is Sheryl, and I have a passion for helping others live a less restrictive lifestyle, identify goals, and gain a greater sense of fulfillment. I can help you process things of the past, tune in more to the present, and address your worries about the future. I can help you set healthy boundaries so you can live a balanced life and reach your goals. If you don’t have goals, no problem, we can find something together that would be meaningful for you. I have helped people overcome depression and anxiety in order to live more fulfilling lives, build healthy relationships, and repair strained relationships. More importantly, I have supported young people in identifying their sense of self or who they want to be. I also have experience working with families who struggle with cultural and generational gaps. I like to promote fitness/exercise and mindfulness in my work. I truly believe in the mind and body connection, and like to incorporate a lot of mindfulness and body exercises into my practice. If any of these sound interesting then let’s work together!
