About Cheryl
Cheryl Osler is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Washington who supports people facing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems, career challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and ADHD.
Background and approach
She brings ten years of experience as a practicing mental health counselor and combines evidence-based therapies with a thoughtful, exploratory stance to help clients navigate life transitions and recurring difficulties.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change patterns of thinking that contribute to distress, while also incorporating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered principles to foster values-based action and a supportive therapeutic relationship.
Cheryl’s background includes extensive clinical training and a history of working with individuals, couples, and families on issues such as depression, bipolar disorder, intimacy-related concerns, and caregiving stress. She also has additional focus areas that include attachment issues, body image, and aging and geriatric concerns.
Cheryl aims to help people build practical skills for coping, improve communication, and create sustainable changes that align with their goals and values. She accepts international clients and offers flexible online session formats to fit different lifestyles and needs.
Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches in Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with personal values, which can help when managing anxiety, grief, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress; it tends to be structured and skill-oriented. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the therapeutic relationship, offering empathic listening and nonjudgmental support to help clients explore their concerns and build self-understanding.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to clarify goals, trial different strategies, and adjust methods based on what feels most effective and sustainable for that person. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to individual needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity across locations. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling, allow for ongoing skill practice between sessions, and enable people to access licensed professionals from wherever they are located.
