About Cherie

Cherie Felzer, LMFT, works with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. She helps those coping with stress, anxiety, depression, life changes, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, parenting strain, and questions about purpose and self-love. Her tone is gentle and companionable, aimed at guiding people back to a sense of ease and connection.

Cherie brings 11 years as a licensed marriage and family therapist to her work. She pairs a calm presence with practices that include body-based awareness, breath, and movement.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what a person is living now and on small, practical steps they can try between meetings. Her approach draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy, with mindfulness and somatic methods woven in. That means attention to how relationships, bodily sensations, and present experience shape feelings and behavior.

People can expect to be heard, to explore patterns, and to practice new ways of relating to themselves. Cherie’s background includes years of movement meditation and community work with diverse groups. She has experience supporting people facing serious illness, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and loneliness.

This perspective informs a practice that values compassion and grounded presence. Sessions are offered in English and are held via video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Cherie is licensed in Hawaii and brings a steady, respectful style to online work.

If someone wants a therapist who listens, guides, and uses body-aware tools, she may be a good fit.

Online support

How attachment, mindfulness, and somatic work translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early connections shape current feelings and responses. Online sessions can explore those patterns through conversation and reflective exercises that help identify how people relate to others and themselves.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and choice, with the therapist offering acceptance and guidance rather than directives. This approach helps people feel heard and builds a collaborative process for setting goals and trying new ways of relating.

Mindfulness and somatic methods bring attention to the body and present moment sensations. Simple practices like breath awareness, grounding checks, or gentle movement can be taught and practiced during video or phone sessions to reduce anxiety and increase bodily awareness.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with the client to see which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That collaboration includes trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.

Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow visual connection and the use of guided movement or breath work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support short check-ins, reflections between sessions, and flexible communication during busy days. These options make it easier to fit therapy into real life while still using attachment, mindfulness, and somatic tools.
