Sherry Farrell, LMFT

Sherry Farrell is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. She brings ten years of clinical experience and a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions. She listens carefully and focuses on what each person needs right now. Sherry trained in clinical psychology at San Francisco State University and earned a master’s degree in counseling psychology from the University of San Francisco. She spent early years working in clinical settings, then taught while raising her children. That mix of clinical and classroom experience shaped how she understands people and everyday struggles. She has worked in clinics and both alternative and mainstream schools. In those settings she supported children with attention and behavior concerns, depression, anxiety, social isolation, and trauma. She has also worked with couples and families around addiction, infidelity, parenting challenges, mood issues, and divorce. With individuals, her work has tended to focus on anxiety, depression, PTSD, obsessive behaviors, and life transitions. She uses several therapy styles to match a person’s needs rather than one set approach. Sessions emphasize building a respectful, compassionate connection and practical strategies that fit daily life. Sherry describes therapy as a team effort. She helps people process difficult experiences and build coping skills for long-term change. If you want a therapist who combines clinical background with real-world parenting and teaching experience, she may be a good fit.
