About Cheronda

Cheronda Pinkard is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who supports people seeking change across a range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She emphasizes collaboration, treating clients as experts on their own lives while helping them define goals and develop practical skills to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. With three years of formal experience as an LCSW in Nevada and acceptance of international clients, she blends structured methods with attentive listening to meet individual needs.

Her work draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new coping skills, alongside solution-focused techniques that concentrate on practical, attainable steps toward client goals.

Cheronda’s background in social work and her focus on empathy aim to create an environment where clients feel heard and supported as they practice new ways of responding to stressors. She offers a variety of remote session formats so clients can choose what fits their routine and preferences.

Using CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online

Many clients find online sessions a practical way to pursue cognitive behavioral techniques that target unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills. CBT focuses on identifying and testing negative beliefs, then practicing alternative responses to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy complements this by directing attention toward clear, achievable changes and small steps that move clients toward desired outcomes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheronda works with each person to assess needs, priorities, and preferences, and then tailors a plan that may combine structured CBT exercises with solution-focused goal setting. Together they set targets and monitor progress so adjustments can be made as the work unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to access care from different locations and fit sessions into busy schedules. These options make it easier to practice skills in real-life settings and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not feasible.
