About Sherry Graves

She earned a master’s degree from Long Island University in New York City in 2006 and brings 16 years of clinical experience working with people across the lifespan, including adolescents, young adults, and older adults.

Her background spans a variety of care settings - from the NYC Department for the Aging Elderly Crime Victims Resource Center and residential substance abuse programs to drug court, the Grady Assertive Community Team (ACT Team), and hospital settings. Throughout her career she has collaborated with interdisciplinary partners such as the Department of Family and Children Services (DFACS), mobile crisis teams, psychiatrists, physicians, the courts, and law enforcement to coordinate care for complex needs.

Sherry specializes in addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem work, bipolar disorder, and depression, and she frequently addresses related concerns including codependency, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, infidelity, life purpose, paranoia, self-harm, self-love, sexual assault and abuse, and women’s issues. Her clinical approach blends client-centered care with evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused therapy to meet each person where they are and support sustainable change.

Known for creating a warm and nurturing environment, she frames her work as a calling to help people move beyond their scars and find meaning, purpose, and renewed strength in recovery and healing.
