Sheryl works with young and older adults and couples, primarily Caribbeans and Caribbean Americans who are experiencing intergenerational trauma, cultural expectations, and ongoing life stressors. She specializes in working with individuals experiencing depression, adjustment difficulties, codependency or interpersonal relationship issues, and trauma. 

Sheryl's approach is integrative, drawing from multiple treatment modalities, with a growing focus on somatic, trauma-informed practices that honor the connection between mind and body. 

This includes assisting clients in developing emotional safety within the therapeutic space and with themselves, understanding how trauma impacts the nervous system, and reframing the narrative associated with trauma in terms of self-doubt, practicing grounding techniques and body-awareness techniques to regulate the nervous system.
