About Katherine
Dr. Katherine Sherman is a Florida psychologist with a Ph.D. and ten years of clinical experience. She sees people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, depression, ADHD, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Sessions are held in English and she practices from Florida.
She uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques alongside other evidence-based methods to address specific symptoms. That includes structured ways to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and test new responses. She also works with targeted problems such as obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic and phobias, trichotillomania, and mood disorders.
Dr. Sherman consults individually with parents to teach practical parenting strategies for disruptive behavior and related concerns. She also supports people facing chronic medical conditions such as diabetes, chronic pain, fatigue, transplant recovery, and cancer, focusing on coping skills and daily routines that reduce burden.
Her sessions tend to be practical and goal-focused. Clients can expect clear strategies, short skills practice, and collaborative planning between sessions. The emphasis is on noticing patterns, making small changes, and measuring whether those changes help.
To begin, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Dr. Sherman does not accept international clients.
How CBT and practical methods work in online sessions
Dr. Sherman uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice thought patterns and daily habits that feed anxiety, low mood, or problem behaviors. CBT sessions usually involve setting a specific goal, identifying unhelpful thoughts or behaviors, and practicing small, measurable changes between sessions.She pairs CBT with other evidence-based techniques that focus on skills training and real-life practice. For example, skills can include behavioral experiments, structured problem-solving, and short exposure exercises for phobias or panic symptoms. These approaches aim to change what people do and think in everyday situations.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which strategies to try based on goals, symptoms, and preferences. That collaborative process includes checking whether a technique is helping and adjusting plans when needed.

Licensed professionals can adapt CBT tools to remote appointments so clients can practice skills between sessions.
