About Cheryl
Cheryl Youngblood, LCSW, works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, and many life changes. She brings a calm, straightforward style and focuses on what helps in the moment. Her way of working aims to make therapy practical and usable in daily life.
Cheryl draws on 12 years as a licensed clinical social worker in California and a long history supporting people affected by trauma and family challenges. She has experience from directing a foster and adoptive services agency and helping people manage caregiver strain, grief, and transitions. That background informs how she notices patterns and practical needs in sessions.
Her approach is client-centered and down-to-earth. She listens first, then suggests tools that match a person’s goals. Those tools can include breathing work, guided imagery, mindfulness practices, and simple exercises to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
Cheryl also uses cognitive-behavioral methods and emotionally-focused ideas to help people change unhelpful thinking and strengthen relationships. She aims to support people who struggle with self-esteem, codependency, or moments of intense anger by offering step-by-step strategies.
Sessions tend to focus on small, doable changes. Cheryl often combines listening with practical coaching so people can try new skills between meetings. People who are juggling caregiving, work, or recovery from trauma may find this approach particularly helpful.
