I have wanted to be a counselor from a young age. I received my undergraduate BA degree in Psychology from the University of Colorado and my graduate degree M.Ed clinical/ school counseling from the University of Phoenix. I also spent two years studying at the Denver Seminary to learn how to incorporate faith into counseling. I started out as a middle school counselor and also worked as a therapist in a counseling clinic. My passions are parent coaching, helping with anxiety disorders as well as depressive disorders.
I have experience in several treatment settings, including inpatient and outpatient. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and various addictions, as well as seniors experiencing challenges unique to their life phase.
An experienced LCSW, Social Worker, Psychotherapist, and educator, Sherry Smith provides holistic, logical and solution focused techniques to get you feeling better about your circumstances while facilitating solution focused methods proven to help.
If you are truly ready to feel better, and if you are truly ready for change, Sherry Smith is the therapist for you.
I believe meaningful healing begins when individuals feel seen, heard, and understood. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I bring over four years of clinical counseling experience, along with more than twenty-two years as a school psychologist, to support children, individuals, and families.
With more than two decades in education, I became deeply aware of how essential mental health support is for children and families. I witnessed firsthand how emotional challenges can affect learning, relationships, and overall well-being—and how transformative the right support can be.
These experiences led me to pursue a career in mental health counseling. Today, I partner with adults to help them build a strong, grounded foundation for themselves, one that naturally extends to their children and strengthens the family as a whole. I also remain committed to supporting teens as they enter adulthood, helping them develop the tools and confidence needed for lifelong well-being.
Welcome! My style is warm and eclectic. I draw from a variety of evidenced-based models, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Somatic and Attachment Focused EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to address your concerns and distressing symptoms. I am also a registered yoga teacher (RYT-200), and I enjoy integrating aspects of yoga, including mindfulness and a mind/body approach into therapy where appropriate.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Greensboro
Searching for postpartum therapists in Greensboro starts with finding a therapist whose training matches what you want support with. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also search for a therapist for prenatal depression or a counselor for postpartum depression. As you compare options, look for therapists who list perinatal mental health, postpartum support, or the PMH-C credential in their profiles.
Greensboro offers a balanced mix of local therapists and virtual care options, which can help you find support that fits your schedule. For new parents, practical details matter: appointment times, infant care, physical recovery, and whether a therapist offers virtual sessions from home. You can also look for free phone consultations, current availability, and session structure. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each therapist describes their approach, specialties, and communication style before you book.
Therapy in Greensboro can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket cost before care begins. Headway helps you find Greensboro therapists who are accepting new patients and offer clear availability. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage for your specific plan and review estimated costs before booking.
