About Sherrie

Sherrie Root is a counsellor who supports people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or low self-esteem. She helps clients who are coping with life changes, family concerns, and feelings of isolation. Her approach is patient and non-judgemental, aimed at helping each person find practical ways forward.

Sherrie uses an integrative style that draws on several approaches. She focuses on building self-awareness so clients can see how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviours. This work often includes looking at attachment patterns, communication habits, and responses to loss or illness.

Practical skills form part of sessions alongside reflective exploration. Clients may work on coping strategies, thought patterns, and small goal-setting to manage anxiety or low mood. Sessions are paced to suit each person and to support steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Sherrie offers telephone counselling designed to fit into busy lives. Sessions aim to be a calm space where people can talk things through, practise new ways of coping and build resilience. She describes the relationship as respectful, empathetic and patient.

With three years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Sherrie works from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. People interested in starting are invited to use the platform's Start Therapy process to match and schedule their first appointment.

Approaches to online counselling and how they help

Client-Centred Therapy is about creating a respectful, listening space where clients set the pace and direction. It helps when someone needs acceptance and support to find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical tools to reduce anxiety and improve mood. It is useful for people who want concrete strategies to manage stress and unhelpful thinking.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and will adapt the approach collaboratively as therapy progresses. This makes the plan feel more personal and useful.

The profile notes telephone counselling as a session option, so confirm the full list of formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and let people join from familiar surroundings. Telephone sessions can be simpler when you need a quieter check-in or when video is not convenient. Registered or accredited professionals use these options to offer continuity and flexibility, while tailoring sessions to the issues you bring.
