About Sherry
Dr. Sherry Aaker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She has ten years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and self-esteem struggles.
She aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable for someone who feels overwhelmed by life changes. Her work often focuses on emotional isolation, life purpose, shame, and guilt. She helps people cope with big transitions like divorce, workplace stress, caregiving responsibilities, and aging-related concerns.

Dr. Aaker uses several practical approaches in sessions, including Attachment-Based Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy.
She integrates these methods to match what a person needs in the moment, balancing skills work with reflection on relationships and values. Her background includes a faith-informed perspective that can be part of conversations when the client wants that included. She aims to pair compassion with concrete tools so people can build resilience and move forward.

Online support
How attachment and CBT approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in close relationships and practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger by teaching specific steps and exercises to try between sessions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Dr. Aaker will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and day-to-day life. That means trying different tools, tracking what helps, and adjusting the plan together so the therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility across formats. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or camera time isn't wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins, skill practice, or coaching easier during busy days. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on progress and usable skills.
