Getting to know Sherry Lord

Hi there, I'm Sherry! Hello, my name is Sherry Lord, a Licensed Independent Social Worker in West Virginia. I have been working in Behavioral health for more than 10 years in various capacities and have held clinical roles consistently since 2020. I see my role as a therapist as an Agent for Change, it is my role to help you change and grow into the vision you see for yourself, through the use of client centered, strength based and evidenced based practices in our session. My approach The most common approaches I use are Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Integrated Motivational Enhanced Therapy/CBT, Integrated Change Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Seeking Safety, Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS) and various other models. My focus I am comfortable treating most any adult client, I have worked with people who are experiencing grief, overcoming trauma, addiction, who are experiencing crisis situations, suicidal thoughts with or without past attempts. I am comfortable working with individuals who are experiencing depression and anxiety and want to reduce these symptoms to achieve greater life satisfaction. My communication style I believe my sessions with clients should be open and safe places to express feelings and share their life experiences without fear of judgment. My role as a therapist is to help my client get to where they want to be, it is a collaboration between myself and my client where the client is met right where they are in order to build their best life as they envision their future. My journey to mental healthcare Seeing people change and grow in their lives is the driver for me to continue to do what I do. Offering a compassionate and safe environment where a person can be heard, validated, and supported is the basis for everything I do in therapy. What attracted me to this career is a passion for helping people.
