Cornwall Counseling Services

At Cornwall Counseling Services, we understand that life can be overwhelming at times, and it's easy to lose focus and clarity. As a licensed professional counselor, I, Sherri Freas, have dedicated my career to helping individuals find clarity in their lives, relationships, work, social life, and spiritual life. With over 15 years of experience as a kindergarten teacher and 7 years as a professional counselor, I have honed my skills in various treatment modalities to tailor my approach to each individual client's unique needs.

Our Services

Our Comprehensive Approach

At Cornwall Counseling Services, we offer a range of services designed to help individuals find clarity and resolve various issues. Some of the areas we specialize in include:

Anxiety

As a specialist in the treatment of anxiety, I use a variety of approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and solution-focused treatment to help individuals overcome anxiety. By understanding the physical responses to anxiety and identifying thought patterns that trigger anxious reactions, we can work together to develop personalized treatment plans.

Depression

Depression can manifest in various forms, and it's essential to understand that it's a treatable condition. Through a collaborative approach, we work to identify underlying causes and develop coping strategies to manage symptoms. While medication can be helpful in depression treatment, I do not prescribe medication. However, I support medication in conjunction with therapy.

Relationship Issues

As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I have extensive training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. I help couples identify unhealthy patterns in their relationship, gaining clarity on how to improve communication, and fostering a stronger connection.

Self-Esteem Issues

Building a healthy sense of self is critical, as low self-esteem can impact various aspects of life. Through a supportive environment, I help individuals develop a healthy sense of self, focusing on self-acceptance, self-worth, and self-love.

LGBTQ+ Issues

As a supportive and non-judgmental professional, I strive to create a safe space for individuals exploring their sexual orientation and gender identity. I believe it's essential to celebrate one's authentic self and work to overcome the social stigma associated with claiming one's identity.

Trauma

As a certified clinical trauma professional, I believe it's crucial to understand the underlying trauma and its effects on daily life. We work together to integrate fragmented memories and restore a sense of safety.

Addiction Recovery

With my advanced training in addiction counseling, I understand the complexities of addiction and the importance of addressing the underlying issues that contribute to addictive behaviors.

Grief and Loss

Grief is a natural response to loss, and it's essential to process and work through emotions associated with loss. I provide a safe space for individuals to process their grief and work towards healing.

At Cornwall Counseling Services, we prioritize a holistic approach, acknowledging the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. By working together, we can explore and overcome various issues, finding clarity and empowering individuals to live their best lives.
