About Sherry
Sherry Gould-Hillhouse is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She brings three years of clinical experience to her practice and focuses on helping people facing addiction, trauma, grief, mood concerns, and relationship or intimacy difficulties. Sherry keeps sessions straightforward and practical.
She listens first and helps clients name their biggest problems. Then she offers tools people can try between sessions to manage strong emotions, cravings, or upsetting memories.
How Sherry works
Her work draws on several therapeutic approaches. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them. She applies Attachment-Based ideas to untangle patterns from early relationships.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Sherry also supports people with issues such as eating and body image difficulties, codependency, abandonment concerns, career stress, and compassion fatigue. She helps clients sort through complicated, overlapping problems rather than treating each concern in isolation.
Sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. She offers a sliding scale and a subscription-style payment that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to therapist availability.
Sherry aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can move forward at their own pace and build skills that last.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters to them and take small, values-based steps even when feelings are hard. It is useful for depression, anxiety, addiction, and major life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and focuses on building healthier ways of connecting and trusting. It can help with intimacy-related issues, abandonment concerns, and communication problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing self-destructive behavior, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills are often helpful for anger, mood instability, and distress tolerance.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss these methods with each person and decide together which tools and focus fit the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust direction as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow fuller conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people stay engaged between sessions or share updates in writing. These formats help people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between meetings.
