About Sherry

Dr. Sherry Marasse is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 12 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, grief, stress, and issues around self-esteem and career changes. Guilt and shame are included among her focus areas, and she also supports people navigating LGBT concerns and compassion fatigue.

She helps people name what they are feeling and takes a practical approach to talking it through. Sessions often look at everyday decisions, relationship patterns, and ways to rebuild self-regard after hurt or regret. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what can be changed now.

Dr. Marasse draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, social anxiety, and grief. She also brings experience with adoption and foster care topics, caregiver stress, and end-of-life concerns. This background shapes how she frames coping strategies and steps forward.

Clients who come with questions about money stress, career direction, or non-monogamous relationships can expect goal-focused conversations that connect feelings to concrete actions. She also works with people sorting forgiveness and abandonment wounds, helping them map practical next steps rather than offering quick fixes.

All sessions are conducted in English and are based in Texas. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options. To begin the process, the site asks users to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Dr. Marasse uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common problems like anxiety, trauma, and grief. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns that fuel guilt and shame; this helps people spot automatic self-critical thoughts and practice alternative, more balanced ways of thinking. Another approach targets trauma-related responses by teaching grounding and emotion-regulation skills so distressing memories feel more manageable in day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She will work with each person to test what helps most, adjusting methods based on their goals and what feels doable. The collaboration is practical: set a goal, try strategies, and review what changed.

Because session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, require less travel, or permit a shorter check-in when time is limited. Many people find it useful for keeping momentum between in-person visits or when juggling caregiving and work demands. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep therapy consistent with everyday life while focusing on clear, actionable steps.
