About Sherri
Sherri Burkert is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 13 years of experience as a therapist. She uses a warm, inviting approach and helps people set clear goals for therapy. Sessions focus on practical steps and regular check-ins to track progress.
Sherri has worked across a range of mental health settings. She brings experience treating depression, bipolar disorder, substance and alcohol concerns, anxiety, stress, trauma and grief. Her work also covers intimacy and relationship struggles, parenting concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, and issues that come with life transitions.
How Sherri works
Her style is client-centered. That means conversations start with what the person needs and build from there. She blends that with cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice patterns and try small experiments that can change day-to-day life.
Sherri also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills when feelings feel overwhelming. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change or needs support getting started with healthier choices. People who choose Sherri often want a practical, respectful collaborator.
She works to make goals concrete and review progress together. The focus is on usable skills and steady steps toward feeling better.

Online support options
Using practical therapies in online sessions
Sherri draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in many sessions. CBT helps a person spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to test what works. Mindfulness teaches simple practices to notice sensations and reduce reactivity, which can help with anxiety, stress, and mood shifts.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or mobility limits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a check-in suits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging let someone send thoughts between sessions or check in more frequently without a full appointment.
