About Cheri
Cheri Goodwin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping concerns, and parenting challenges. Sessions are offered in English.
Cheri uses practical, skills-based methods aimed at noticing unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns that cause distress. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and narrative work. The focus is on short, clear steps that can reduce distress and make daily life easier.
In early sessions she helps identify the specific problems that cause the most disruption. That can include patterns of thinking, avoidance, substance use, or repeated relationship struggles. From there she and the client map out small experiments and exercises to try between sessions.
Her approach stays concrete: practice new ways of responding, track what works, and adjust the plan. Mindfulness techniques are used to build attention and calm. Motivational interviewing helps people find internal reasons to change when motivation is low.
Cheri has worked with people affected by domestic violence, divorce and separation, blended family issues, and related stressors. She also supports individuals dealing with abandonment, codependency, commitment and communication problems, and co-occurring mood or substance concerns. Her aim is to help people regain steadier functioning and clearer choices.

Approaches explained and how online sessions work
Many of her sessions draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. CBT breaks problems into small, clear steps and uses homework to practice changes between meetings.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. Mindfulness Therapy is used alongside these methods to build attention, reduce reactivity, and support better sleep and emotion regulation.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Cheri works with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and comfort level. She adjusts the plan based on what the client notices is helping and what is not, so the work stays practical and focused on daily functioning.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, which can suit someone who prefers that option. Licensed professionals tailor timing and pacing to match real-life schedules and responsibilities.
