Cherie Truax, LSW

Licensed Social Worker
EMDR Therapist

Life is a journey filled with peaks and valleys, moments of overwhelming stress, and times of profound confusion. It's my passion to help people sort through their difficulties and move forward with clarity and peace of mind amid struggles.

Our mental landscape profoundly shapes mood and behaviors. Sometimes we feel stuck, and need someone to listen or help us identify solutions to our problems. My objective is to create a safe haven for my clients to unpack their burdens, fears, and uncertainties - fostering an environment where we collaboratively find healing and create a toolkit of skills and strategies to manage life's complexities.

My journey toward aiding others found roots in volunteering, engaging in humanitarian endeavors abroad, and supporting under-resourced communities locally. It became evident that addressing basic needs is vital, yet true healing occurs when getting to the root of our traumas, adversities, and struggles. As a therapist, I'm driven by the opportunity to facilitate authentic, sustained change on an individual level, with the belief that this transformation eventually influences our collective wellbeing.

Outside of this fulfilling work, my solace lies in the simple pleasures of reading books, exploring new places, caring for my plants and reveling in the antics of my adorable (albeit mischievous) feline companions.
