Sherry Covington

My communication style

My communication style is calm, accommodating, and very personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything. I am proud of myself for having the ability to listen to my clients without judgment.

My journey to mental healthcare

I decided to become a therapist because I have always wanted to help people. Whether it was a family member, volunteering in my sorority, or just being a listening ear, or a shoulder to lean on for a stranger. I have always naturally been drawn to helping others through difficult times.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is working with clients to define what they want to accomplish during our time together. Most importantly, the client and I will build a rapport by getting to know each other, learning to trust each other, and by getting comfortable with what it means to be in therapy.

Our first session

What you can expect from our first session together is for us to spend most of our time getting to know you, and how you have been feeling lately. I will be asking you questions to better understand some of why you feel the way you do. The first session is about us building rapport and helping get a sense of where to start.
