About Cheri

Cheri Pfeiffer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 16 years of experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She practices in Delaware and has supported people facing major life changes, medical diagnoses, and end-of-life concerns. Her work has included helping LGBT adults and others navigating identity-related stressors.

Cheri keeps sessions straightforward and collaborative. She treats therapy as a partnership and asks clients to define their goals. In session she listens, reflects, and helps people notice patterns that make life harder.

Background and approach

She offers practical strategies for coping and everyday changes that can reduce distress. Her background includes many years working with adults dealing with loss, illness, and caregiving strain. That experience guides how she frames conversations about difficult news and long-term stress.

She also addresses relationship issues, intimacy concerns, anger, self-esteem, and addictions in focused sessions. Cheri combines supportive listening with goal-setting and coaching-style guidance when useful. She aims to build a nonjudgmental space where feelings can be named and next steps can be planned.

People who prefer clear steps and a steady, calm approach often find this style helpful. Sessions are offered in English and Cheri accepts international clients for remote work. Starting therapy involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling so therapy can fit into daily life.

Online support

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Many clients benefit from straightforward, evidence-based methods that focus on managing symptoms and building coping skills. One common approach Cheri uses is problem-focused coping work, which helps people break big challenges into smaller, manageable steps and practice specific strategies to reduce anxiety or overwhelm.

She also uses grief-focused support that helps people name losses, track difficult memories, and plan rituals or actions that honor what was lost. This practical approach can help with bereavement, medical diagnoses, and end-of-life concerns by creating clear ways to remember and adjust.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheri will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life, then adjust techniques to fit what works best. She encourages clients to give feedback so sessions stay useful and focused on real change.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation when a longer session is needed, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit quick check-ins or ongoing support between longer appointments. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and fit therapy into work, caregiving, or treatment schedules.
