About Cherice
Cherice Peagler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with 20 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, and low self-esteem. Many people come to her when life changes leave them uncertain about what comes next or when they want to reconnect with purpose.
Cherice focuses on practical steps people can use right away. She talks through communication problems and social anxiety in direct, concrete ways. She helps people name what matters to them and then experiment with small changes that clarify direction and reduce overwhelm.
Sessions emphasize learning usable skills for handling anger and for steadier emotional responses. Cherice supports clients who are coping with major transitions and those rethinking work, relationships, or personal priorities. She also works on building self-love and clearer interpersonal boundaries.
Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented. Clients can expect straightforward conversation, problem-solving, and repeated practice of new behaviors between sessions. The focus is on what helps day-to-day functioning rather than abstract theory.
Cherice brings two decades of clinical experience to each case and adapts methods to fit a person’s circumstances. People who feel stuck, uncertain, or overwhelmed often look to her for help sorting options, testing next steps, and building steady routines that support long-term change.
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Two evidence-based approaches Cherice commonly uses are skill-based interventions for anxiety and structured work on communication. Skill-based interventions teach breathing, grounding, and short behavioral practices to reduce immediate anxiety and manage stress. These techniques aim to help people respond more calmly in daily situations and practice new habits between sessions.Another common focus is communication training, which breaks down how to express needs, set boundaries, and handle conflict in clear steps. Practicing these skills in session helps people try them out in real life and refine what works for their relationships and roles.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Cherice works with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress is made. That collaborative planning helps keep sessions practical and relevant.
