Cheryl Hann, LPC, LCMHC

Cheryl Hann is a licensed professional counselor who brings ten years of mental health experience to her work. She practices in North Carolina and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career struggles, and depression. Cheryl emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions.

She adapts conversations and treatment to each person’s situation. Cheryl draws on approaches that help clients build motivation, cope with life changes, and regain confidence. She has worked with concerns related to grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy issues, and she includes addictions in her scope of focus.

Cheryl has documented experience supporting active duty military and veterans in clinical settings. Her background also includes Hispanic and Chicano cultural studies, and she notes university-level Spanish competency. She has studied religious trauma and the process of adjusting after involvement in high-demand religious groups.

In practical terms Cheryl aims to make therapy a collaborative effort. She helps people name what matters, set manageable goals, and try new behavior between sessions. The work is paced to each person’s needs and preferences.

Her stated specialties extend to caregiving stress, body image, codependency, communication problems, and several other life stresses people commonly face. Cheryl frames the therapeutic relationship as support for change and empowerment.

How Cheryl's approaches translate to online work

Cheryl uses client-centered therapy to put the person's experience first, listening closely and tailoring conversations to what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is another tool she draws on to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes that reduce symptoms. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills may be used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when strong emotions are getting in the way.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheryl works with each person to identify goals and preferences, then tries methods that fit those aims. She checks in and adjusts the plan as progress or challenges emerge, so the work stays focused and useful.

Confirm the available session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, sessions can be scheduled around work breaks, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use several approaches effectively in remote sessions, and Cheryl aims to help people apply therapy skills in everyday settings.
