About Shérral
Shérral Harding is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, parenting concerns, career issues, ADHD and coping with life changes. She also addresses compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder, anger, and other related struggles.
Shérral keeps sessions direct and practical. She starts with an open conversation to learn what is most pressing. Then she and the person set short-term goals and focus on steps that can be used between sessions. Sessions are described plainly and without jargon so people can understand what will happen.
Her background includes work with people who face family and family-of-origin problems, attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication breakdowns, and the effects of prejudice and multicultural stress. She helps people talk through guilt, shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose.
Shérral draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address post-traumatic stress, disruptive mood dysregulation concerns, and co-occurring conditions. She aims to help clients regain balance, increase motivation, and relearn everyday skills that feel lost after major life changes.
Sessions are conducted in English. She practices in Virginia and holds the LPC credential listed above. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session using the site flow.
Therapeutic approaches and how online work supports them
Shérral uses evidence-based techniques to focus on practical change. One common method is cognitive-based work that helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with more accurate, useful thinking. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, and stress by providing concrete tools to test and change thoughts.Another frequently used approach is skills-based regulation work that teaches strategies for managing strong emotions and improving day-to-day functioning. These skills help with anger, mood instability, and the ups and downs that come with conditions like bipolar disorder or disruptive mood patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Shérral works collaboratively to figure out which methods match a person's needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time if something isn’t working.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy schedules and keeping momentum between appointments. The therapist profile does not state which session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to schedule appointments around work or study commitments.
