Cheryl Wilson, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CT
Hi there, I'm Cheryl! Cheryl L. Wilson, LCSW. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Fordham University. My approach to therapy is psychodynamic, focusing on exploring the client's earlier years to understand their current behaviors and emotions. My practice areas include relationships, adolescents, and families. I aim to uncover deep-seated issues and patterns from the past, helping individuals gain insight and achieve personal growth. Through this exploration, I facilitate healing and foster healthier relationships within families and among adolescents. My approach My therapy is rooted in a psychodynamic framework, where we explore your earlier years to understand and address current behaviors and emotions. Additionally, I frequently employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support clients in managing their thoughts and behaviors. CBT focuses on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns, helping clients develop healthier thinking and coping strategies. ACT emphasizes accepting thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them, while committing to actions that align with personal values. This integrative approach allows me to address a wide range of issues, particularly in relationships, adolescents, and families, fostering insight, resilience, and positive change. My focus I typically work with younger adults and teenagers, addressing a variety of conditions. I am most comfortable treating depression, anxiety, relational and interpersonal issues, trauma, and providing couples counseling and family therapy. My goal is to support clients in overcoming these challenges and achieving healthier, more fulfilling relationships and emotional well-being. My communication style In my sessions, I create a soft and non-judgmental tone, fostering a relaxed and safe environment. Working with me feels relieving, insightful, motivational, and helpful.
