Sheri Hunt, LCSW

Sheri Hunt is an LCSW based in Kentucky who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. She centers clients' strengths and personal goals while offering steady support through hard moments. Sheri writes in straightforward language and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to each person.

With 15 years of experience, she draws on several therapeutic styles to meet different needs. Sheri often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live according to their values even when emotions are intense. She also uses Client-Centered techniques to build a collaborative space and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Sheri has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, mood disorders like depression and bipolar, and substance-related problems. She also supports people facing parenting stress, relationship strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and issues around attachment and abandonment. Her background includes long-term work in mental health settings, which informs practical ways to cope day to day.

Sessions focus on concrete skills, moment-to-moment problem solving, and clear goals agreed on together. Sheri emphasizes small, achievable steps so progress feels possible between visits. She encourages clients to bring what matters to them and to shape therapy around their life.

Starting therapy is framed as a partnership. Sheri aims to listen first, then tailor methods such as mindfulness exercises, CBT tools, or acceptance work to the person’s needs and pace.

How Sheri's approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps that match their values. It can be useful for ongoing stress, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at the client's pace to build trust and make therapy useful.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sheri will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt methods collaboratively. Together they decide whether acceptance strategies, CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, or a mix fits best for the issue and the person’s day-to-day life.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow regular check-ins during periods of stress. It also lets people use tools like guided mindfulness exercises and structured CBT worksheets between sessions to reinforce progress.
