About Sherri

Sherri Salmon is an LPC who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, and low self-esteem. She focuses on practical skills that make daily life easier. She writes simple plans clients can try between sessions and encourages people to build on their own strengths.

Sherri draws on three main approaches to guide conversations and skill-building. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and follow each person’s priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify thoughts that fuel distress and replace them with more useful patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy directs attention toward small, useful changes that add up over time.

With 30 years of experience, Sherri has worked with a wide age range. She often supports teenagers, young adults, and women facing depression, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, abuse, neglect, abandonment, resentment, and religious or spiritual struggles. She also addresses workplace issues, money stress, communication problems, and feelings of isolation or shame.

Sessions are aimed at helping people reframe thoughts, learn coping tools, and build a clearer life plan. Sherri treats clients as the experts of their own stories and helps them use strengths already present. Her style is straightforward and encouraging, focused on usable steps rather than jargon.

People who want a practical path forward and a therapist who listens closely may find her approach helpful. Sherri practices in New Jersey and offers support in English.

How her approach adapts to online therapy

Sherri uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy in ways that translate to remote work. Client-Centered Therapy means she listens and follows what matters most to the client, creating space for concerns to be named and prioritized. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking to lower anxiety and mood symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, achievable steps that lead to quick, practical change.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a client’s goals and preferences. That may mean trying a CBT exercise for a few sessions, then shifting to solution-focused planning, or combining listening and skills work throughout treatment.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be arranged. Online work can help people fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and make scheduling around work or family easier. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed, or longer sessions for deeper work, depending on what helps someone progress.
