About Sherrie
Sherrie Root is a counsellor who helps people when life feels overwhelming. She supports those struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. Her approach is calm and patient, aimed at helping people find practical ways to cope.
Sherrie uses conversation and reflective listening to help people understand how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviours. She encourages clients to work at their own pace and focuses on building awareness and everyday coping skills. Sessions are offered by remote telephone contact to fit around busy schedules.
Her work draws on client-centred listening alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and psychodynamic thinking. That mix helps with immediate coping and with looking at longer patterns that keep problems repeating. Solution-focused tools are used when someone wants shorter-term practical steps.
Sherrie emphasises compassion, respect and patience in sessions. She helps people practise new ways of thinking and spotting unhelpful habits, so they can try different choices in daily life. The aim is to build confidence and resilience for future challenges.
With three years of experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Sherrie brings a straightforward, down-to-earth style. People who want to talk through anxiety, family pressures, grief or changes in life can expect clear conversation and practical coping strategies.
How therapeutic approaches fit with online work
Sherrie blends client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural techniques to support people remotely. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and helping the person lead the pace of the discussion, which can help with feelings of overwhelm and low self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and gives simple, practical tools to manage anxiety and unhelpful thinking.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sherrie treats the decision as a collaboration and will help clients test different ways of working to see what feels most useful for their goals and lifestyle.
She offers telephone counselling and asks people to confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows ongoing work during life transitions and when practical coping tools are the priority. Confirm the available formats when you book so arrangements match your needs.
