About Cheryl
Cheryl Broome is a licensed clinical social worker who uses straightforward, skills-based approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and trauma. She frames therapy as a partnership and starts by listening to each person's story. Cheryl encourages practical steps clients can try between sessions to feel steadier and more able to cope.
With 20 years of experience working in Texas, Cheryl draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide sessions. She helps clients untangle painful patterns, test small changes, and build clearer ways of thinking and acting. This can be useful for mood concerns, self-esteem struggles, and addictive behaviors.
Cheryl also supports people facing long-term challenges like chronic illness, caregiver stress, and the effects of domestic violence or discrimination. She pays attention to how past family experiences shape current reactions and communication problems. First responder issues and post-traumatic stress are additional areas she addresses.
Her style is direct and practical. Sessions often focus on identifying concrete goals, naming unhelpful thoughts, and trying new behaviors. Cheryl aims to make therapy understandable and manageable for someone balancing work, health, or caregiving demands.
If coping after a natural or human-caused disaster is part of the concern, she can help people process what happened and rebuild a sense of safety and purpose. To begin, prospective clients use the site's Start Therapy button and a short matching questionnaire to schedule according to therapist availability.
How these approaches translate to online sessions
Cheryl uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy to guide practical work in sessions. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral changes to shift mood and anxiety. Narrative Therapy helps people tell and reframe their story so painful experiences have less power over choices and identity.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheryl works with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Together they set clear goals and test what helps between meetings.
If you prefer to continue care online, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or reduce travel time on days when energy is low. Many people find focused CBT tasks and narrative exercises transfer well to remote sessions when paired with straightforward follow-up and practice between meetings.
