Cherri McCord integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to support people working through emotional and practical challenges. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship so clients feel heard and understood, which is helpful for issues like relationship concerns, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress.She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful for intense emotions, anger, and relationship conflicts.
