About Sherri
Sherri Kincade is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 27 years of experience practicing in Florida. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, substance use and recovery, trauma, career strain, parenting stress, relationship and intimacy concerns, and other life changes. Sherri uses practical methods aimed at reducing symptoms and increasing moments of satisfaction in daily life.
She describes therapy as an active process. Sessions focus on noticing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. Sherri often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people test unhelpful thoughts and try different responses in real situations.
Her approach also draws on acceptance and commitment work and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when those methods fit a person’s needs. Mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing can appear in sessions to build steadier habits and to strengthen motivation for change. Conversations are direct and goal-oriented, with opportunities to reflect and plan concrete steps.
Sherri has experience with people from many backgrounds, including healthcare workers and parents, as well as those navigating homelessness and recovery. She combines practical strategies with listening to help clarify next steps. People who want structured, hands-on tools to manage stress and improve daily functioning often find this style useful.
To get started she asks people to describe the main problem, set short-term goals, and pick a few small experiments to try between sessions. Progress is measured by changes in how often problems occur and how people respond when they do.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Sherri commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change thinking and behavior patterns that maintain anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful coping. CBT sessions tend to focus on practical tasks and experiments that can be tried between meetings.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and accept difficult feelings while taking actions that matter to them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotional regulation, distress tolerance, or interpersonal effectiveness are priorities for a client.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels manageable, then try methods that fit those aims. Adjustments are made based on what helps in practice rather than sticking to a single method.
Session format options are not specified here, so confirm the available online session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, shorten check-in times when needed, and allow people to practice skills in their everyday settings. These practical benefits often help sessions feel relevant to daily life without requiring major schedule changes.
