About Cheryl

Cheryl (Susie) Briggs is a licensed clinical mental health counselor with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, low self esteem, depression, and motivation challenges. She also supports concerns such as relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, trauma and abuse, and addiction-related issues.

She listens with respect and compassion, and adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions are practical and aimed at small, manageable changes that add up over time. She helps clients build confidence, work through intimacy and relationship questions, and cope with life changes.

Cheryl tailors a plan based on what each person brings to the first meetings. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques chosen to fit the concern and the person. The focus is on clear steps, emotion management, and rebuilding everyday routines that support better functioning.

She also addresses worry linked to obsessions or compulsions, struggles with self-love, and challenges tied to compassion fatigue or ADHD. When appropriate she works on anger, eating concerns, and issues related to infidelity. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Cheryl practices in Utah and offers sessions in English. She encourages people to take the first step when they feel ready and supports them through scheduling and planning so therapy fits into their life.

Approaches and what online therapy can offer

Cheryl uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical problem solving and emotional regulation. One common approach she relies on helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced thoughts to reduce anxiety and self-criticism. This approach is useful for worry, low self esteem, and depression.

She also uses behavioral strategies that encourage small, achievable actions to rebuild routines and motivation. These steps target issues like depression, addiction-related behavior, and coping with life changes by creating measurable progress and clearer daily structure.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheryl will work with clients to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. Together they review what feels helpful and adjust the plan as needed.
