Sheri Bassewitz, LCSW

Sheri Bassewitz is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with three decades of experience. She approaches therapy in a compassionate, straightforward way and focuses on practical tools people can use right away.

Early in her career she worked in hospice, oncology, and home care. Those years taught her how to listen to hard stories and help people face major life changes. She later moved into school settings and spent many years supporting students' social and emotional needs.

She has also spent time at camps for children, including programs for kids with speech, language, and social-emotional learning needs, and volunteered at The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp for children with serious illnesses. Those experiences shaped how she talks with kids and families about stress and loss.

More recently she worked in private practice with children, adolescents, and families, addressing emotional and social challenges that interfere with daily life. She has supervised social workers pursuing licensure and brings that mentoring mindset into sessions.

Sheri helps people who are coping with anxiety, depression, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, trauma, and self-esteem concerns. She also supports those living with health challenges such as cancer or hospice and end-of-life issues. Her goal is to help clients set clear goals and learn coping strategies that fit their daily routines.

How Sheri's approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead. It helps people feel heard and clarify what they want from therapy. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotions and relationships to help people understand patterns and build stronger emotional responses. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage anxiety and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try. This collaborative process means approaches can be adjusted as progress is made.

Confirm the available session formats before booking because specific online or in-person options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also be helpful when physical health challenges make travel difficult. Licensed professionals and therapists can explain which format will best match your circumstances when you schedule.
