About Sherri

Sherri Burkert is an LPCC practicing in Ohio with 13 years of clinical experience. She trained in psychology and counseling and has worked across inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization, and crisis intervention settings.

Background and approach

Her background includes helping people manage depression, bipolar symptoms, substance-related concerns, stress, and anxiety, and she brings that practical experience into each therapeutic relationship. Sherri’s manner is warm, client-centered, and collaborative.

She partners with clients to set clear goals, track progress, and tailor interventions to the challenges at hand. Her clinical toolkit includes cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered, mindfulness, DBT, and motivational interviewing strategies, selected to match each person’s needs.

People who connect with her often want structured help for mood and addiction concerns as well as guidance through grief, trauma, relationship strains, caregiving stress, and life transitions. She welcomes those ready to invest time and effort into change and works to create an inviting space where concerns can be examined and practical coping skills developed.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Sherri commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered methods to guide online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood regulation. Client-centered work emphasizes the therapist's empathic listening and collaboration so clients shape goals and the pace of change.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness techniques when emotional regulation and coping skills are priorities; DBT skills help with distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness while mindfulness supports present-focused awareness and stress reduction. Throughout online care the therapist will collaboratively explore which approach or combination of approaches fits a client’s needs and goals, adjusting strategies as progress is made.

Online therapy is offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow ongoing check-ins between live sessions, and support continuity of care when in-person meetings are not feasible.
