I have been working with Dr. Sherri Mkhwane for several months now and she has been such a help. She has supported me through periods of heightened anxiety and has helped me come up with plans to act on what I can, and to help with my expectations and feelings of guilt on what's out of my control. She is very easy to talk to and I am grateful for my time spent talking with her.

I’ve been with Sherri for a couple of months now and I couldn’t be happier that I got matched to her. I’ve heard all of these horror stories about therapist and clients not getting a long but Sherri is amazing. She listens when I want to be heard and gives me great advice. My friends, family and myself have seen an improvement in me since starting therapy. She is amazing and truly cares about her clients.

I’ve only had a couple sessions with Sherri but I feel that she has a genuine care for progress and getting to know me and how she can actually help. She’s not one to just sit back and listen, she advises and guides and wants to get to the root of the issue. Definitely someone I would recommend to others.

Sherri is a really great counselor. She is attentive, perceptive, timely, and truly caring. She listens and focuses on what you are saying and what you are not saying. She is also professional and courteous. She also has a genuine personality that is relatable. She was there for me during some pretty dark times and has effectively and kindly helped me out. I would 10/10 recommend her.
