Sherrille Mckethan

Sherrille Mckethan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Jersey with 11 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trauma, and major life changes. She also focuses on issues such as divorce and separation, domestic violence, postpartum challenges, and questions about life purpose.

Sherrille uses a mix of person-centered ideas, solution-focused techniques, strength-based perspectives, and cognitive behavioral approaches. In practice that means sessions often look at current problems, identify small steps that can help, and test different ways of responding to stressful thoughts and situations. Conversations include practical coping skills and attention to how culture and identity shape experience.

She emphasizes respect for each person's background and the barriers some people face. That involves naming how racial, ethnic, or cultural factors can affect mental health and considering those factors when planning next steps. Sessions aim to be frank and practical rather than abstract.

People who feel misunderstood or overlooked will find an approach that values their perspective and past efforts. The therapist helps clients set clear goals and tries out concrete strategies in-session and between meetings. Progress is measured by what changes in daily life, not by labels.

Sherrille asks prospective clients to use the site process to start: choose the online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session to begin discussing needs and goals.

Approaches you may encounter in remote sessions

Sherrille uses person-centered methods that centre the client's perspective and priorities. This approach focuses on listening, clarifying what matters to the client, and shaping sessions around their goals and values.

She also relies on solution-focused ideas that break problems into manageable steps. These techniques look for small, practical changes that can be tried between sessions to see what helps with stress, anxiety, or life transitions.

Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to practice alternative responses. These methods are commonly applied to anxiety, panic, mood challenges, and low self-esteem by combining thought work with behavioral experiments and coping skills.

Figuring out which approach fits is part of the work. The therapist will work with each person to test different methods and pick what aligns with their needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. When a phone session or a video visit is chosen, practical factors such as needing a quieter setting, lower bandwidth, or a shorter check-in can guide that choice.
