About Sherry

Sherry Haynes is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with seven years of clinical counseling experience.

Background and approach

She holds a Masters of Arts in Counseling Psychology and brings a background in human services to her work, focusing on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, relationship and family matters, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, career challenges, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Her training emphasizes practical, evidence-based methods and she tailors each session to the person in front of her. Sessions with Sherry emphasize a person-centered approach that respects the complexity of family, work, and relational life.

She draws on a range of therapeutic tools including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, trauma-focused approaches, and EMDR to address symptoms and build coping skills. Sherry aims to help clients navigate life transitions, strengthen resilience, and pursue goals that reflect their values.

Prospective clients can expect collaborative care that adapts to their needs and supports steady progress toward meaningful change.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Sherry uses several well-established therapeutic techniques to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more effective patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help people manage intense emotions and improve relationships. Trauma-focused approaches, including trauma-focused CBT and EMDR, support processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional impact while building coping strategies for daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and typically happens through collaboration. The therapist will work with clients to explore their goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adjusting methods over time to better match what helps the individual make progress.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide practical flexibility for busy lives. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across work and family commitments, allow for consistent access to licensed professionals, and support ongoing skill practice between sessions.
