About Cheryl
Cheryl Barajas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with seven years of licensed experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression.

Cheryl uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and behavior. She helps people develop coping skills for anxiety and cravings, process difficult memories, and practice clearer ways to talk about needs and boundaries. Work often includes short-term strategies and longer-term skill building.
Her approach is collaborative. She and the client set goals together and check progress as they go. Treatment plans are adjusted as needs change, and practical tools are introduced when they can help with daily functioning.
Cheryl offers sessions in English and practices in Texas. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the site.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Cheryl uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and everyday problems. One common approach focuses on skill building for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior changes that reduce immediate distress. Another approach targets addictive behaviors by identifying triggers, building relapse prevention skills, and adding routines that reduce cravings and help with daily functioning.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheryl will work with the person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. She discusses options and explains why a method is being used so the person can make informed decisions about their care.
