    About Sherry

    Sherry Jones-Williamson is an LCSW based in North Carolina with more than three decades of clinical experience. She works with people facing anger, low self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, grief, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. She also focuses on aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, midlife concerns, and women's issues.

    Sherry draws on a person-centered style that emphasizes listening and respect. Sessions are meant to be a supportive, non-judgmental space where people can set realistic goals. She aims to help clients build practical skills for daily life and improved functioning.

    Her practice includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try alternative strategies to manage symptoms. She also uses Motivational Interviewing, a client-focused way to explore mixed feelings about change and move toward workable goals.

    Sherry's background includes extensive work in inpatient psychiatric settings, with considerable experience serving older adults. That history informs a calm, steady approach when helping people cope with medical, caregiving, or aging-related stress.

    She encourages a collaborative process that fits each person's needs. People who choose to work with her can expect straightforward talk about practical coping steps and goal planning. To begin, use the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule sessions.

  1. How these approaches work in online therapy

    Sherry uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors, then practice new strategies that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Motivational Interviewing is used to talk through mixed feelings about change and to help people set clear, achievable goals they feel ready to pursue.

    Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your needs, values, and goals and suggest which methods may fit best. Together you can try different approaches and adjust the plan as you see what works.

    Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for quicker check-ins between appointments. It can also let people choose sessions that match their energy level, such as a shorter conversation by phone when needed or a longer video visit for deeper work. Ask about available formats when you schedule so sessions match your practical needs.
