About Sherrita
Sherrita Ried is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who helps people manage anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship struggles. She works with adults facing trauma, grief, parenting strain, career shifts, and identity concerns. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aiming to make space for honest conversation and practical change.
She brings six years of counseling experience to her practice and a longer personal history in healthcare that shaped her view of emotional care.
Background and approach
That earlier work in nursing made her attuned to the ways pain can go unspoken and to the need for gentle, steady support. In sessions she focuses on building trust first. She listens without judgment and helps clients name what is most pressing.
From there she uses tools to notice unhelpful patterns and try out different ways of responding. Her approach draws on client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, emotionally-focused work, and mindfulness. Those methods are used to address anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy and relationship issues, self-esteem, grief, and coping with life changes.
Sherrita practices in North Carolina and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She works collaboratively to set goals and develop practical skills for day-to-day life. Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy places the client's experience at the center of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people name their priorities so they can set clear goals and feel understood.Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful patterns in relationships.
Dialectical behavior ideas bring skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These techniques are useful for people who need concrete tools for emotional regulation and clearer communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level, and may combine techniques over time to see what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for deeper, face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep consistent progress.
