About me

My name is Dr. Cheri Anderson and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan with over 20 years of experience as a mental health psychotherapist and an International Certified Gambling Counselor. I have a PhD in Counseling and Clinical Supervision from Wayne State University. I am trained to use Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) with trauma clients. I provide counseling services to individuals, couples, and families who are experiencing emotional pain.
I also provide Christian counseling by addressing emotional pain from a Biblical perspective- if requested by the client.

I work with clients who are struggling with a variety of issues, but not limited to: depression, anxiety, low-self esteem, technology addictions, gambling addiction, marital issues, boundary issues, relationship issues, anger management, occupational burnout, post-traumatic stress, adjusting to college, conflict resolution, and life after
COVID-19, I use a cadre of therapeutic modalities: client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral therapy, & EMDR.

I meet clients where they are and I provide compassionate and caring emotional support. I provide clients with personalized treatment plans that help them reach their intrapersonal goals that lead towards emotional healing. Please keep in mind that emotional healing begins when you share your story.

I look forward to hearing your story and helping you along your journey to emotional healing.

Dr. Anderson has been my therapist for 3 years. She has helped me through many breakthroughs. I had trouble finding a consistent therapist and then Dr. Anderson came along! I have learned so much and I have grown so much since meeting with Dr. Anderson!
Dr. Anderson gave worksheets, used other tools besides just talk therapy to help breakthrough. I am a completely different person than when I first started!

Dr. Anderson has helped me tremendously! I highly recommend her to anyone seeking understanding from childhood trauma & especially someone looking for a faith based therapist. In one year, I have gained a deeper understanding of myself and have been able to put a lot of pieces together about my life and different decisions I’ve made. I’m so thankful for her!

Dr Anderson is so knowledgeable, understanding, compassionate and positive. At a time where I am quite low, I end my sessions with hope that I can overcome

Written on Jun 19, 2023 after therapy with Cheri for 8 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, grief, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue

I appreciate Dr. Anderson’s Christian based counsel. I’m a Faith-filled woman who has benefited greatly from her words of wisdom influenced by the Word of God. She listens patiently as I lament on my good days and not so good days. She has given my good sound advice on alternative ways to deal with my stress, anxiety and sadness. She has given my self-care recommendations that I am working on right now, to put in place to refill my half full half empty mental and physical space.
