*Please be aware that I DO NOT ACCEPT insurance at this practice. I provide a superbill that you can submit to insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement. My practice is also a non-profit, so all payments are tax deductible* Cheryl Williams is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and is the owner of My Abundant Life Now Counseling Service based out of Long Beach, California. She focuses her practice in helping individuals, couples and families rebuild their lives, in addition to helping victims of suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety and other diagnosis. Cheryl earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology with a concentration in Child Development from Kaplan University, a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology/Marriage, and Family Therapy from Argosy University. She enjoys working with adults, couples, and families to resolve their issues through a client centered approach offering empathy and a non-judgmental environment to support them in establishing their goals so that they can identify and develop their inner strengths.

Cheryl’s signature saying is: No matter what you see, hear, smell, taste, touch or think; remember everything is still already alright because we all have the potential to change! *Depending on availability, you may be referred to a clinician on my team. All clinicians are informed by rigorous training and my particular approach to supporting clients. Know that I personally review and consult with every clinician about each of their clients.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Client's should know that I am direct, honest, and not interested in them showing me their "good foot". I am interested in helping the fix the other foot so that there will be a match of two good feet being presented. I also want them to know that when they help themselves, they will help someone else.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I use various evidence-based approaches, skilled in cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, mindfulness, solution focused therapy, narrative therapy, positive therapy, and biblical counseling. She walks her clients through the gardens of their lives, helps them identify any unwanted weeds, and uproot them, so that they can regain their voice.
