About Sherry

Sherry Fidel is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy challenges, low self-esteem, and depression. With eight years of clinical experience, she focuses on supporting clients through motivational struggles, building confidence, and exploring questions of life purpose.

Background and approach

Sherry emphasizes a nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can voice difficult thoughts and feelings and work toward practical change. Her approach blends evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, emotionally-focused work, the Gottman Method, and mindfulness practices to tailor interventions to each person’s needs.

She encourages clients to treat the decision to seek help as a courageous first step, and she partners with them to set realistic goals and learn skills for daily life. Based in Texas, Sherry offers a compassionate, collaborative style aimed at helping people increase self-love, improve communication, and find greater emotional balance.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Sherry commonly draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns, build practical coping skills, and clarify values that guide meaningful action. CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors that maintain distress, while ACT encourages acceptance of difficult internal experiences alongside committed steps toward what matters most.

She also incorporates emotionally-focused techniques when relationships and attachment concerns are central, offering ways to strengthen emotional connection and improve communication. Throughout the process she works collaboratively with clients to determine which approaches fit best for their goals, preferences, and current challenges rather than prescribing a single method up front.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible for different schedules and needs. These formats can make it easier to access ongoing support, practice skills between meetings, and maintain continuity of care even when life is busy or travel is required.
