About Sherry
Sherry Rantz is a licensed clinical social worker in Texas with 28 years of professional experience. She works with adults and teens on everyday struggles like anxiety, depression, grief, and stress. Her first aim is to treat people with respect and compassion while building on existing strengths.
Sherry adapts the work to each person's needs. She draws on a mix of practical methods to help with coping skills, mood, sleep, and relationship concerns.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing LGBT questions, autism-related challenges, and parenting stress. Her background includes independent practice, social service agency work, school social work, and classroom teaching. That variety informs a straightforward style that balances understanding with actionable steps.
Sessions focus on what matters to the person sitting across from her, not a one-size-fits-all plan. When anxiety or panic feel overwhelming, Sherry helps people learn tools to manage symptoms and move toward everyday functioning. For grief and life changes she aims to create space for honest feeling alongside practical problem solving.
She pays attention to communication difficulties and family conflict and helps clients find clearer ways to connect. Sherry offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. She encourages a collaborative process where the client's goals guide the pace and content of therapy.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Sherry uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as core tools. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values instead of getting stuck in avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic.Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will work with each person to identify goals and try techniques that fit their needs, adjusting methods as progress is made. That collaborative process helps people learn what feels most useful for them.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for in-depth conversation and seeing facial cues, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can be helpful for brief updates, coping prompts, or when connecting between sessions. These formats make scheduling easier and let people get support from wherever they are in Texas.
