About Cheryl Chiarello

Cheryl Chiarello, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), believes therapy can benefit anyone who is human. With 17 years of experience, she emphasizes the difference between talking with a friend and working with a trained listener - a therapist offers focused, nonjudgmental attention and helps people explore thoughts and emotions they may find difficult to share elsewhere. She meets clients where they are, whether they seek guidance on a specific issue, need help naming their feelings, or simply want support in sorting through confusing thoughts.

Her approach centers on creating a space where a person can speak freely without fear of criticism, and she offers assistance when talking feels challenging. Taking the first step toward therapy often requires courage, and Cheryl aims to support individuals through that process with steady, empathetic care.
