About Cheri
Cheri Goodwin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, depression, intimacy issues, sleep and eating concerns, and parenting strain. She speaks plain, direct language and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. If asking for help feels hard, she aims to make the first conversations simple and manageable.
Cheri draws on about 20 years of experience and mixes several approaches to match each person's needs. She uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. She also applies Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful patterns and take action toward valued goals.
Sessions tend to focus on clear problems and concrete moves to feel better. Cheri often helps people uncover what lies beneath recurring anxiety or low mood, then build skills to cope differently. Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy are used when fitting a person’s motivation and life story into the plan matters.
The work is collaborative: Cheri listens, offers straightforward tools, and adjusts the approach as needed. She aims for progress people can see in their day-to-day life rather than long lists of theory.
People who choose her often want practical strategies, mindfulness practices, and support with both immediate symptoms and longer-term change. To start, readers should follow the site’s process to match and schedule a first appointment.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Cheri commonly uses Mindfulness Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple noticing skills to reduce reactivity to stress and worry. ACT helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions even when feelings are uncomfortable. CBT breaks down thoughts and behaviors into steps so patterns of anxiety, low mood, or sleep problems can be changed with practice.
Finding the right approach is a team process. Cheri will work together with each person to pick or combine methods that fit their goals and daily life. That means checking in about what helps, adjusting techniques, and trying different tools until something feels useful.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to use real-life situations as material for work between meetings. Because the specific session formats are not stated here, readers should confirm current options before booking. Practical benefits often include quicker check-ins during a workday, options that don’t require travel, and the ability to practice mindfulness or behavioral experiments in the settings where challenges happen.
These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
