About Cherri
Cherri Crisp is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, and relationship and family concerns. Her profile notes support for LGBT issues, parenting, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what is causing trouble now and what small steps can change day-to-day patterns. Sessions may include learning new ways to think about problems, practicing skills to manage strong feelings, and trying out different behaviors between meetings.
Her approach draws from several well-known methods. Cherri uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques to help people notice what matters to them. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness practices are used for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Cherri describes her work as collaborative and practical. She helps people build strategies for communication, boundary-setting, and coping with overwhelming emotions. That includes attention to issues such as abandonment, body image, codependency, and caregiver stress when they come up in sessions.
She also addresses specific life events like divorce, adoption and foster care concerns, cancer-related stress, and grief. The focus is on clear, usable skills that fit into everyday life and help reduce the impact of anger and other intense feelings.
How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions
Cherri commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based work as part of sessions. ACT involves noticing thoughts and feelings while clarifying what matters most, then taking small steps toward those values. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes to reduce distress. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and help with emotion regulation.Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try different strategies, and adjust the approach based on what helps in day-to-day life. Clients and therapist work together to pick skills that fit routines and responsibilities.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people choose remote sessions because they can fit appointments around work or caregiving, avoid travel time, and keep regular check-ins easier to manage. Remote work can also make brief skill-focused check-ins simpler and allow flexible scheduling that slots into a busy day.
