Cheri Goodwin

Cheri Goodwin is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting concerns. She also focuses on related areas such as abandonment, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and drug and alcohol addiction.

Cheri uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what feels most pressing. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thinking and behavior patterns, and on mindfulness practices to help manage strong emotions.

Her approach also includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to support values-based choices and build motivation for change. Narrative Therapy is used to examine stories people tell about themselves and to consider alternate perspectives. These methods are used together to address both current struggles and recurring patterns.

Cheri aims to help people identify concrete steps they can take between sessions. She pays attention to coping skills for day-to-day life, sleep and eating routines, and patterns in close relationships. The work is collaborative and goal-oriented, with practical tasks to try between meetings.

She practices in Colorado and offers services in English. To begin, the site’s booking flow asks for a short matching questionnaire and then the chance to schedule an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and questions about direction in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and provides concrete techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which can reduce anxiety and improve sleep and eating habits. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to lessen reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cheri will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first, and she will adjust the plan based on goals and what feels most useful. This is a joint process that focuses on practical steps and short-term experiments.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people choose online work because it can fit into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Online sessions can make it easier to keep momentum between meetings and to practice skills in everyday settings without changing other routines.
