Sherri Herman

Psychotherapist -

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected, despite doing all the right things?
You don’t have to keep pretending everything’s fine when inside you feel exhausted, stuck, or alone. I help high-achieving adults break free from perfectionism, people-pleasing, and self-doubt so they can finally feel calm, confident, and deeply connected, within themselves and with others.


Whether you’re juggling a demanding career, navigating a major life transition, or just tired of old patterns running the show, we’ll uncover what’s keeping you stuck and gently guide you back to yourself, your peace, and your purpose.


My Approach: The 5 Pillars of Mental Health


I believe lasting mental health is built on five essential pillars:


🌿 Mindfulness – cultivating presence and awareness in everyday life
🌿 Self-Compassion – shifting from inner criticism to inner kindness
🌿 Self-Care – tending to your body, mind, and spirit in meaningful ways
🌿 Values – reconnecting with what matters most to you
🌿 Relationships – healing your relationship with yourself and others


These pillars form the foundation of my work and are into our sessions together. Whether we’re exploring childhood wounds or tackling burnout and boundary issues, we’ll come back to these core elements again and again to support lasting transformation.


What it’s like to work with me:


In our first two sessions, I’ll get to know your story, what’s working, what’s not, and where you long to go. By our third session, we’ll create a roadmap with clear goals, grounded in a vision that feels authentic to you.


I bring together evidence-based therapies like ACT, CBT, and psychodynamic therapy with mindfulness, spirituality, and lived experience. I’m warm, compassionate, honest, and deeply committed to helping you live a life that feels peaceful and fulfilling.


A bit about my journey:


Before (and after!) becoming a therapist, I worked in corporate settings—navigating office politics, tight deadlines, and the pressure to perform. On paper, I was successful. But something was missing. That quiet ache to make a real difference led me to pursue counseling psychology. Now, with 15 years of experience, I help others find meaning, connection, and a new way forward.


How I continue growing:


I stay connected to my own mental, emotional, and spiritual growth through mindfulness, movement, nutrition, journaling, and learning. I regularly attend trainings and workshops, read current research, and connect with colleagues to keep my work aligned and inspired.


Two quick quotes that reflect my style:


🌀 Compassion, authenticity, and respect are key. I’ll meet you where you are, help you heal old wounds, and guide you toward lasting transformation.


🌀 Living in greater alignment with your values and authentic self allows you to feel a kind of peace and ease that you never knew was possible.
