About Sherrie
Sherrie Mintz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Virginia with four years of professional experience. She sees people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strains, family conflict, grief, parenting challenges, anger, and low self-esteem. She also works with those coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related concerns.
Sherrie uses a conversational, client-centered approach. She focuses on helping people name hard emotions and understand how those feelings affect their choices and relationships. She uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to shift patterns that feel stuck.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is part of her stated approach for working with emotions and attachment patterns. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice what is happening in the moment and respond with more intention. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods support short-term goals and clearer next steps.
In sessions she talks through specific problems and helps people develop simple, doable strategies. She pays attention to family of origin issues, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment difficulties, and blended family challenges when they come up. Other areas she addresses include codependency, communication problems, commitment fears, and fatherhood issues.

How her approaches translate to online work
Sherrie uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name difficult feelings and look at how those emotions shape relationships. EFT can be helpful when attachment patterns and hard-to-name emotions are getting in the way of closeness or decision-making.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and understanding a person’s perspective so they can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides practical steps to change thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, or stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life situation. That conversation helps set short-term goals and decide what techniques to try first.
