I have been a counselor for over 20 years and have worked with a variety of age groups who suffered from a wide spectrum of mental health concerns from mild depression to serious mental illnesses. I am EMDR trained and have experience working with clients that have experienced severe trauma. I have treated clients with EMDR using the online platform and have had great results.

My counseling style is interactive, informal, and solution focused. I'm also a big proponent of the cognitive-behavioral model by targeting each clients unique needs. My focus is to empower clients to get better. I look forward to working with you!

To all my Prospective Clients: Hello, I am Sherry Friedman, a National l Board Certified Counselor (NCC), clinical mental health counselor licensed in Rhode Island, North Carolina, and South Carolina with twelve years of experience. My clinical orientation is Jungian (transformational and psychodynamic) and my counseling approach is holistic and multi-dimensional. This means I explore my clients' biopsychosocial, emotional, environmental, cultural, energetic, spiritual, and cosmological influences that may be creating stress, anxiety, grief, emotional trauma, relationship issues, and career challenges. As an HSP (Highly Sensitive) Person HSP Psychotherapist (https://hsperson.com) Empath, and Reiki Master, I am skilled at creating an emotionally safe space and empowering my clients to discover and embrace their gifts and strengths with healthy boundaries. I offer a warm, interactive counseling style and I practice "Listening with HEART" (Healing, Energy, Awareness, Resiliency, Transformation) and HeartMath coherence as a mindfulness-based treatment approach. The ultimate goal of all therapy is transformation, so that we can move forward as the highest, best version of ourselves. This typically involves finding one's life purpose and who we incarnated on this planet to become. Deeper self-discovery and getting to the root cause of pain requires a rare form of bravery. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take that first step toward change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to empower you and look forward to working with you! All the best, Sherry Ann ("Share") Friedman, NCC, LCMHC MA School Psychology, (Ball State University), MS Ed Gifted Education (Purdue University), MS Clinical Counseling (Bellevue University)
