About Sherita

Sherita Dobbins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and relationship or family concerns.

Sherita offers straightforward, respectful care and listens first to understand each person's needs.

Her style is warm and client-centered. She aims to meet people where they are, offering empathy without judgment and clear, honest feedback.

Background and approach

Sessions tend to be practical and focused on small, manageable steps that fit daily life. Sherita uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs. That can include cognitive behavioral techniques to reframe unhelpful thinking, dialectical behavior skills for emotion regulation, emotionally-focused work on relationship patterns, and hypnotherapy when appropriate.

She adapts methods rather than sticking to one fixed formula. Her background includes work in mental health, inpatient and outpatient settings, schools, and hospice services. She has experience addressing trauma, child abuse, sexual abuse, and grief-related issues and has provided individual and group work in those areas.

Sherita holds a Master of Science in Social Work and practices in Mississippi. She emphasizes collaboration and practical tools, helping people build coping skills and find clearer direction during hard times.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Hypnotherapy can help people access focused relaxation and imagery to address anxiety, grief, or troublesome habits. In online sessions this often means guided relaxation and suggestion work tailored to a person’s goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it works well in online sessions through brief exercises, homework, and real-time thought restructuring.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Sherita will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That collaborative testing helps clients discover whether hypnotherapy, CBT, or other methods feel like the best fit for their situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins or reflection, and text-based messaging supports ongoing contact between scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to practice skills in the moments they matter.
