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.

She has taught me consistently is key. When I show up to a session (even when I’m 5 mins late) I know I won’t have to feel guilty or bad, it will still be a great session. Her consistency helps grow my desire to show up for myself, even when it’s not what I want to do in the moment. I strongly encourage anyone who is having self love issues to reach out to Dr. Anderson. My experience so far has been understanding my self and personal growth. It’s been hard but worth it. (I’m not close to being finished and probably never will be). I’m thankful.

My experience with Dr. Anderson has helped me to ground myself. The time she spends in reflective listening and then offering techniques that lead me to my own conclusions is valuable and impactful. I appreciate her time and patience as well as her expertise and compassion. Dr. Anderson was a great choice!

Dr.Anderson is amazing. It took a few tries to find a therapist who fit me. Dr.Anderson is knowledgeable, personable, hilarious and gives me valuable & practical ways to work on the issues that I bring to my sessions. Her Faith based approach (which I requested) is just what I needed. I am so happy to have found her.
