About Cheri
Cheri Donahue is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 25 years of experience. She works with adults coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem struggles, and concerns related to trauma and abuse. Cheri speaks English and works from a clinical perspective grounded in proven therapeutic methods.
She helps people who notice patterns from their family of origin that still affect their relationships and choices. That includes issues such as attachment concerns, abandonment, codependency, and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with life stages and health challenges like aging, caregiver stress, and cancer related strain.
Cheri draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address dissociation, dependent personality patterns, and control issues. She also works with people coping with divorce or separation, domestic violence histories, and the emotional effects of natural or human-caused disaster. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps that clients can try between meetings.
Her background includes work with families affected by neglect and substance use where parents were seeking to regain custody, and clinical experience with a range of personality and co-morbid issues. That practical experience informs how she helps people rebuild routines and communication.

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are central to Cheri's work. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. These techniques help people develop clearer routines and more manageable ways of coping.Attachment-informed strategies look at patterns learned in the family of origin and how they affect current relationships. This approach helps people recognize habitual roles and practice new ways of communicating and relating when trust or closeness feel difficult.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Cheri will discuss options with each person and adjust methods based on goals, needs, and personal preference. Clients and therapist work together to try different techniques and see what fits best.
