About Sherri
Sherri Kardell is a California LMFT with seven years of clinical experience working with adults. She focuses on relationship issues, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and self-esteem. Sherri also names abandonment, attachment struggles, codependency, and communication problems among her areas of attention.
Sherri describes her work from an attachment-based perspective. She helps people notice patterns that began in early relationships and how those patterns show up now. That often means talking through relationship cycles, shame, and the beliefs that make someone feel stuck or empty.
Her sessions mix psychotherapy with life-coaching elements. Practical steps and reflective conversation are both part of the process. She aims to help people rebuild self-confidence, resolve relationship conflicts, and reconnect with a clearer sense of purpose.
Sherri notes experience supporting people through grief, divorce and separation, hospice and end-of-life issues, and caregiver stress. She also addresses jealousy, commitment worries, and difficulties forming or keeping intimate partnerships. These topics are explored with attention to how early family of origin experiences shaped current reactions.
Her background includes a Master of Arts level education in the field and a long personal commitment to spiritual practice, which she says informs her clinical presence. Sherri uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Imago Relationship Therapy in her work. Sessions are offered in English in California and international clients are not accepted.

How her therapeutic approaches translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions using this lens focus on noticing patterns in closeness, trust, and communication and then practicing different responses in day-to-day life. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's experience and priorities. In remote sessions this can mean reflective listening, clarifying goals, and developing practical steps that fit a client's schedule.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with the client to decide which methods suit the concerns and goals at hand, adjusting the mix of psychotherapy and life-coaching as needs shift. That collaborative process helps set expectations for what weekly sessions will focus on and what homework or practices might be useful between meetings.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine, shorten check-ins when time is limited, avoid travel time, and use audio-only meetings when bandwidth or comfort with video is a concern. These practical benefits help people keep therapy manageable alongside school, work, or caregiving responsibilities.
