About Stephen

Stephen Sherokey is a New York-licensed therapist who brings more than a decade of compassionate counseling experience to people navigating difficult life chapters. He is credentialed as an LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) and focuses his practice on supporting individuals facing depression, addiction, grief, career transitions, and ongoing personal growth.

His work extends to concerns such as isolation, communication challenges, self-love, and questions of life purpose, with particular attention to young adults, caregivers, and those managing workplace stress, chronic health conditions, or spiritual struggles. Grounded in a Christian-informed outlook, Stephen offers a conservative yet empathetic style that seeks to honor each person's values and unique journey.

He guides clients in exploring forgiveness, addressing guilt and shame, and developing practical coping strategies that fit their lives. Whether addressing substance-related difficulties, navigating major transitions, or improving relationships, Stephen emphasizes respectful collaboration and is committed to walking alongside individuals as they pursue meaningful change.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Stephen integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing into online work to address a range of concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often supporting people with anxiety, depression, and stress-related issues. Existential Therapy explores questions of meaning, purpose, and values, which can be useful for those facing life transitions, spiritual struggles, or questions about direction. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people clarify their motivation and build commitment to change - a helpful approach for addictions, lifestyle shifts, and stages of ambivalence.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Stephen works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and geographic constraints. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home or work, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
