About Sheri

Sheri King is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Vermont and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with nine years of counseling experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and trauma and abuse. Sheri also lists parenting, coping with life changes, and blended family issues among her focus areas.

Sheri helps people identify their own answers and build confidence to move toward their goals. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps that help people feel more in control after loss, conflict, or major life change. She talks through patterns that keep someone stuck and helps them try different approaches in everyday life.

Clients who have worked with her have brought challenges including domestic violence, sexual abuse, panic, and post-traumatic stress. Sheri also supports people managing caregiver stress, serious illness in the family, end-of-life concerns, and changes after divorce or separation. She names non-monogamous relationship dynamics, BDSM and kink, and intimacy-related issues among areas she addresses.

When grief or loss is part of the picture, Sheri focuses on restoring a sense of agency and practical coping skills. For anxiety and panic she works on short-term strategies that can reduce immediate overwhelm and build toward longer-term change. Her approach emphasizes helping individuals notice what is working and what to adjust.

People who contact Sheri are invited to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions are provided in English and reflect her practice in New York and Vermont licensure jurisdictions.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Sheri uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she uses helps people learn short-term coping strategies for anxiety and panic; these are simple skills to lower immediate distress and make day-to-day life more manageable. Another approach centers on trauma-informed work that looks at how past hurts affect current relationships and decision making, and then develops step-by-step ways to regain a sense of agency.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and then adapt pace and focus as progress is made. The process is meant to be interactive and goal-oriented rather than one-size-fits-all.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm which options are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so people can use a break between commitments. Working remotely can also let someone choose whether they prefer to be on camera, use audio only, or schedule sessions at times that suit caregiving or work obligations.
