About Cherie

Cherie Taylor is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia. She focuses on practical help for people facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship strain, and career questions. Cherie aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what matters most and find steps that fit their life.

Cherie uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide her work. She helps clients notice patterns, test small changes, and build clearer daily routines. Sessions often include brief skill practice and focused reflection so progress feels concrete.

Her experience includes helping people manage grief, trauma, addictions, and problems with self-esteem and intimacy. She also supports those dealing with caregiver stress, aging issues, codependency, and the aftereffects of major life changes. Cherie pays attention to how identity and life stage shape every concern she addresses.

People who contact her can expect a collaborative process. Cherie listens for values and goals, then chooses techniques that match each person's needs. She aims to make therapy understandable and useful from the first sessions onward.

With nine years of clinical work, Cherie combines practical tools with steady emotional support. She works in English and practices across a broad range of mood, relationship, and adjustment challenges.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and fit

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters most and take small actions toward those values. ACT is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and situations where avoidance keeps someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing more helpful responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and work-related stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage strong feelings and relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find that online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online work still focuses on skill practice, values-based goals, and real-life experiments that translate to everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and DBT tools to an online setting to keep therapy practical and focused on daily results.
