Marcia Sherrod

LCSW | Psychotherapist
Anxiety, Parenting, Self-Compassion

I would be delighted to explore with you whatever brings you to therapy at this time in your life.

If you are struggling with a life transition, stress, or symptoms of depression or anxiety, we can work together with curiosity and compassion to help you develop the skills necessary to tolerate difficult emotions and situations in the present moment while helping you reconnect to your own vitality. If you are feeling stuck and unsure how the future will unfold, I would be honored to help you learn to embrace uncertainty while creating a meaningful, authentic life.

Mindfulness, self-compassion, and meditation have changed my life, and I am humbled and honored to share these skills with Flourish clients.

I specialize in applying mindfulness and attachment theory to anxiety, attention issues, depression, grief, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, compassion focused, and strengths-based. I have a particular interest in working with young adults, new parents, women, and anyone interested in developing a mindfulness practice.

My specialties include:

• Anxiety

• Cultivating self-care

• Coping skills

I will provide a safe, compassionate space to explore your inner life and any obstacles to your well-being. I have a unique ability to help people see their own inherent goodness and build on the many strengths already inside of them. Please contact me for a free initial phone consultation to see if I can help you along this journey.

I have studied Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), insight-oriented meditation, self-compassion, yoga, and various forms of expressive and movement-based therapies for both personal and professional development during the past 12 years. My educational background includes a Masters of Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin and a Bachelor of Arts in Latin American Studies and Spanish from UNC-Chapel Hill.
