About Cherrilleye

Cherrilleye Joiner is an LMFT practicing in Oklahoma with nine years of clinical experience. She has worked across a range of settings including schools, therapeutic foster care homes, inpatient and outpatient mental health hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, and outpatient clinics.

Background and approach

Her background has involved supporting people facing depression, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma, and related concerns. Her approach emphasizes whole-person care that honors mind, body, and spirit while using evidence-informed methods.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with acceptance-oriented and attachment-focused practices, client-centered listening, and emotionally-focused tools to tailor work to each person’s needs. Cherrilleye aims to meet clients where they are and to partner with them on practical steps toward their goals.

She encourages persistence through the discomfort that often comes with therapeutic change and frames the process as a collaborative journey. With experience in diverse clinical environments, she offers perspective and strategies to help people navigate stress, grief, addictions, intimacy issues, career concerns, ADHD-related struggles, and other life transitions.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Cherrilleye commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression and to support practical problem solving. ACT emphasizes building psychological flexibility through values-based actions and mindfulness skills that help people respond differently to difficult emotions and life challenges.

She also draws on attachment-informed ideas to explore relational patterns and strengthen emotional connection and safety in relationships. Together these approaches allow flexibility in tailoring interventions to things like relationship strain, grief, trauma, and stress-related concerns. Deciding which methods to use is a collaborative process; the therapist partners with clients to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and everyday realities.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide scheduling flexibility and easier access from home or work. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care during life changes and to use brief check-ins or longer sessions according to what best supports a client’s progress.
