About Sherri

Sherri Burkert is an Ohio LPCC with 13 years of experience as a therapist and two decades working in mental health settings. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship struggles, anger, trauma and a range of mood and life-change concerns. Sessions focus on practical goals and measurable progress.

Sherri has worked across inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization and crisis intervention settings. That range shaped a down-to-earth approach that leans on clear skill-building. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice patterns and try new responses.

Client-Centered Therapy is a base of her work, so sessions emphasize what the person brings and the goals they want to set. She uses Motivational Interviewing to support decisions about change, and mindfulness strategies to reduce reactivity and manage stress.

In practical terms she helps clients set observable goals and track progress. Conversations cover what’s happening, what makes it worse, and small experiments to test different ways of coping. This can include managing anger, addressing substance use patterns, or working through relationship and parenting strains.

Sherri practices in Ohio and conducts sessions in English. People who are considering therapy are invited to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting to see if the fit feels useful.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on what the client brings and the goals they want to set. In practice this means sessions begin by clarifying the most immediate concerns and agreeing on measurable steps to take between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and introduces small experiments to test different responses; it is often used for anxiety, mood problems, anger and stress management.

The right approach often becomes clear through conversation. Sherri treats finding a good fit as a collaborative process and will discuss options based on the person's goals, needs, and preferences. That means adjusting techniques and pacing together as progress is tracked.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Confirm the available session formats before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also allow for using mindfulness exercises and DBT skills practice between sessions so new habits can be tested in everyday life.
