About Sherrie
Sherrie Kuns-Mackert is a California licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 30 years of professional experience. She works with adults who want clearer ways to manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, compassion fatigue, and challenges with focus and attention. Sessions are presented in plain language and aim to address the immediate problems that interrupt daily life.
Sherrie bases her work on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts conversations to the person's situation. She listens for patterns that fuel outbursts, persistent worry, or low mood, and she helps people practice new responses in everyday moments. Practical skills and short-term strategies are used alongside deeper reflection when that feels useful.
Her background includes long-term practice helping people with complex, overlapping difficulties such as co-morbidity, addiction, chronic pain or illness, dissociation, attachment and abandonment concerns, and first responder stress. She also supports people dealing with impulse control, guilt, shame, and communication problems. The approach is pragmatic and focused on reducing the problems that get in the way of work and relationships.
Sherrie works in English from California and holds the LCSW credential. She offers care to adults and does not accept international clients. Before scheduling, readers should confirm current session options and formats using the site flow.
To begin, a short online questionnaire matches needs and helps schedule an initial session. Sherrie uses that first meeting to set goals and agree on practical steps to try between sessions.
How sessions work
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Sherrie works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and behavior change. One common approach emphasizes practical skills for managing intense feelings and reducing impulsive reactions; it teaches short exercises to use when anger rises and ways to change automatic responses. Another approach looks at how thinking patterns and attention difficulties keep mood and stress problems active; it helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try clearer ways of thinking.Choosing the right method is part of the work. The therapist and client collaborate to pick approaches that match the person's goals, needs, and day-to-day reality. Early sessions test what helps most and adjust the plan as progress or barriers appear.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or appointments by removing travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when helpful and let people practice skills in the parts of life where problems actually occur. Licensed professionals can guide decisions about pacing, homework, and how to use sessions to change patterns that keep anger and stress active.
