About Cherish
Cherish Brooks is a licensed professional counselor with the credential LPA-IP who focuses on practical growth and change. She centers work on forward progress while also looking back when it helps people understand habits and patterns. Sessions emphasize clear steps people can try between meetings. Cherish writes treatment plans that reflect each person’s needs and goals.
Cherish brings ten years of experience and a toolbox of approaches to the work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and shift behavior. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people live by their values. Emotionally-Focused and Dialectical Behavior methods are added when they fit someone’s needs.
Her sessions tend to be action oriented and creative. She may use creative arts or solution-focused techniques to open new ways of seeing a problem. Plans are revisited over time so progress is tracked and adjustments are made.
People come to Cherish for many concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, parenting strain, career stress, codependency, ADHD, and relationship issues. She also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment, caregiving strain, chronic illness, body image, and aging issues.
Therapy begins with understanding current struggles and life goals. From there she builds a step-by-step plan that balances short-term relief with longer-term change. The work is collaborative and paced to what each person needs.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-based steps toward those goals. It can help with anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck by teaching practical actions aligned with personal values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Online CBT often involves tracking patterns, practicing new skills between sessions, and using exercises to shift unhelpful thinking that fuels stress or mood problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. Sessions can blend approaches over time so the plan evolves as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking since options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins that match a person’s schedule. Some methods lend themselves to worksheet work and between-session practice, which translates well to remote sessions. Discuss scheduling and format preferences during the matching and intake steps so sessions match everyday life.
