About Cheryl
Cheryl Comfort is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Arkansas who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and challenges with self-esteem.
Background and approach
She draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to support work around addictions, grief, intimacy-related concerns, relationship and family issues, and coping with life changes. Cheryl combines practical skill-building with empathic listening to help clients develop more effective coping strategies and clearer self-understanding.
Her practice also addresses a broad spectrum of related concerns such as ADHD, anger, career stresses, parenting difficulties, body image and eating issues, and attachment-related difficulties. Cheryl uses collaborative, client-centered techniques alongside structured interventions to improve communication, build resilience, and reduce symptom burden.
With eight years of clinical experience, she aims to provide tailored care that honors each person’s history while helping them move toward meaningful change.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Cheryl commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill practice, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. ACT emphasizes values-based action and acceptance strategies to reduce avoidance and increase psychological flexibility, useful for trauma recovery, chronic stress, and life transitions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Cheryl works with clients to explore which methods fit their goals and preferences, blending client-centered listening with structured techniques so the plan can be adjusted as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase accessibility and scheduling flexibility. These formats make it possible to engage in skill-building exercises, guided reflections, and ongoing check-ins without traveling to an office, while allowing clients to choose the communication style that best supports their progress.
