Online sessions and therapeutic approach
Sherry Bougard provides remote sessions that combine structured skill work and reflective exploration. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to identify patterns of thought and behavior and to develop practical strategies for managing symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, or stress. Mindfulness therapy is offered to strengthen present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity through simple attention and breathing practices.
For those who have experienced trauma, trauma-focused therapy is available to attend to how past events affect current functioning and relationships. Bougard works collaboratively with each person to set goals, select techniques that fit their needs, and adjust the pace depending on comfort and readiness. Remote appointments include video calls and phone sessions, and she also offers live chat and text-based messaging as ways to stay connected between sessions.
