Cherylynne Berger, LCSW

Welcome to a journey of healing, growth, and transformation. At our practice, we believe in the innate potential of every individual to overcome their personal challenges and create a fulfilling life. As an experienced psychotherapist, I am committed to providing a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space for you to explore your difficulties and discover new ways of responding to life's challenges.

Perhaps you are struggling with relationships, work, depression, or anxiety. Maybe you feel stuck, confused, or uncertain about your life's direction. You may have a real desire for change, but not know how to make it happen. Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I am here to help you navigate your unique journey towards healing, growth, and transformation.

Therapy is a powerful tool for personal healing, growth, and transformation. It can help you uncover your true potential, overcome past experiences, and build resilience in the face of life's challenges. By working with a trusted professional, you can begin to make real progress in your life.

At our practice, we offer a range of clinical services and areas of expertise. I specialize in helping individuals work through personal problems, improve relationships, and build resilience. I also have extensive experience working with depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. My approach to therapy is holistic and individualized, focusing on the unique needs, beliefs, values, and expectations of each client.

My Approach to Therapy

My approach to therapy is grounded in the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology, which recognizes the importance of the relationship between the brain, mind, and relationships. I believe that our experiences, both positive and negative, have a real impact on how we understand ourselves and others. By exploring your beliefs, values, and expectations about life, and looking at your usual or habitual way of reacting to things that happen, you can open up the possibility of learning new ways of responding to significant experiences and towards people in your life.

At our practice, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can feel comfortable expressing your innermost feelings and needs. I respect and honor each client's unique cultural and ethnic background, and bring an appreciation for the similarities and differences among world cultures into my work.

Fees and Insurance

Our practice accepts a range of insurance plans, and also offers self-pay options. We are committed to making therapy accessible and affordable for all individuals, and are happy to discuss fees and insurance options during your initial consultation.
