About Cheri
Cheri Goodwin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, sleep or eating difficulties, parenting strain, and substance use issues. She also works with people facing abandonment, codependency, divorce and separation, blended family challenges, and the fallout from natural or human-caused disasters.
Cheri uses practical, hands-on approaches in session that aim to identify what is under the surface. She draws on cognitive behavioral work to tackle unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She blends mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and build calm. Motivational interviewing and narrative methods help people find their values and reshape the stories they tell about themselves.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. Cheri aims to help people notice what matters, try small changes, and measure progress. She emphasizes simple skills people can use between meetings to manage strong emotions and urges. Her style is straightforward, supportive, and solution-oriented.
With two decades of clinical work, she brings experience with complex cases and overlapping concerns. Cheri often helps people move from feeling stuck to feeling more capable and clear about next steps. She encourages a step-by-step pace and checks in about what is working as therapy progresses.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take actions that match those values, even when hard feelings are present. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and struggles with meaning or motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing practical changes to reduce distress and improve coping. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and sleep or eating difficulties. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity, increase awareness, and support emotional regulation.Cheri treats the choice of approach as a team effort. She will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as needed. That collaborative process helps tailor the work to real-life needs rather than following a fixed formula.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people practice skills in everyday routines and bring those real moments into sessions for discussion.
