About Sherrie

Sherrie Root offers support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. She works with individuals who feel overwhelmed, sad, worried or lonely and helps them talk through what is happening now and how the past may still affect them. Sessions focus on practical coping skills and clearer self-understanding so people can manage day-to-day challenges more easily.

Sherrie uses a blend of approaches tailored to each person.

Background and approach

She listens without judgement and encourages people to set the pace. Conversations look at thoughts, feelings and behaviour so that new ways of coping can be tried and practised between sessions. This plain, step-by-step style suits people who want structure alongside compassionate listening.

Her work often pays attention to attachment patterns and early experiences, and she can help people untangle issues around relationship difficulties, commitment and communication problems. Practical tools from cognitive behavioural thinking are used when helpful to reduce anxiety or shift unhelpful thinking. Solution-focused techniques support short-term goal setting and progress tracking.

Sherrie also supports people dealing with specific concerns such as body image, caregiver stress, cancer-related distress, infidelity, divorce and the sense of emptiness or isolation that can follow life changes. She encourages building small, achievable steps that add up to steadier days. Sessions are offered remotely by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different lifestyles.

Sherrie is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often written as BACP, and works from the United Kingdom.

Approaches and how they work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor offers empathic, non-judgemental attention so people can explore feelings at their own pace; this helps when someone feels overwhelmed or stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, often called CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It teaches practical exercises and coping strategies to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted as progress is made or priorities change.

Online therapy by video, phone, live chat or text messaging gives practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit brief reflections, ongoing check-ins or when writing things down feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments while keeping the focus on steady, usable progress.
