About Sherilyn
Sherilyn Cho is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Hawaii who uses an existential lens alongside practical methods to help people facing everyday struggles. She focuses on supporting adults with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, grief, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Sherilyn writes and talks plainly in sessions and centers each conversation on the person who walked in the door.
Her background includes six years of clinical experience working in direct care roles.
Background and approach
That work included intensive in-home supports and skills training in school settings, giving her hands-on experience with behavioral strategies and family dynamics. She draws on that experience to keep sessions grounded and action oriented. Sherilyn blends existential ideas with client-centered and cognitive behavioral tools.
She helps people name what matters to them, notice patterns that no longer work, and try small experiments to change difficult routines. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques also show up in sessions when they fit a person’s goals. Expect a collaborative style that emphasizes strengths and practical skills.
Sherilyn offers phone, video, live chat, and text messaging formats to make therapy fit into busy days. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are held in English and Sherilyn practices in Hawaii.
If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that works with the therapist’s calendar.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Existential Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and face hard choices with more awareness. In practice this means talking about values, meaning, and choices so clients can make decisions that fit their life. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on warmth, acceptance, and listening; the therapist follows the person's lead and supports them in finding their own answers. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and uses simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood.Finding the right approach is usually a team effort. The therapist will ask about goals, what has worked before, and personal preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments happen as therapy progresses so the plan stays useful and relevant.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls let people read facial cues and have longer conversations. Phone sessions work well when lower bandwidth or hands-free check-ins are needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework ideas, or step-by-step support between longer appointments. These options give flexibility and help people keep therapy consistent even with shifting schedules.
