About Sheri
Sheri King is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people find their own answers. She uses a strengths-based approach to help clients build confidence and a clearer sense of purpose.

Background and approach
Sheri also supports those facing life transitions such as divorce, pregnancy and childbirth, caregiving, cancer, and end-of-life concerns. Her practice addresses intimacy-related issues, communication problems, and non-traditional relationship structures including polyamory and kink. Sheri assists people navigating blended family challenges, parenting stress, and panic symptoms in ways that fit their values and daily life.
With nine years of counseling experience and licensure as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Vermont and New York (LCMHC, LMHC), she draws on practical techniques that are evidence-based. Sessions focus on concrete steps - skills for managing anxiety, ways to cope with grief, and methods to rebuild self-love and boundaries. Sheri intends sessions to feel collaborative.
She helps people set realistic short-term goals and tracks progress over time. The emphasis is on usable tools that fit each person’s life and on strengthening resilience for the challenges ahead.
Approaches that guide online counseling choices
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical skills and clearer thinking. One common approach emphasizes teaching coping skills for anxiety and panic - simple strategies for breathing, grounding, and responding to overwhelming thoughts that can reduce symptom intensity. Another approach centers on trauma-informed care, helping people rename and understand painful memories while working to restore a sense of safety and control over daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That means trying techniques, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit busy routines. Video is useful for in-depth sessions when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging are helpful for quick updates, ongoing coaching between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people keep therapy consistent despite work, caregiving, or travel commitments.
