About Cherington
Cherington Lackland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, grief, and problems managing anger.
She focuses on practical, evidence-based techniques to help people handle strong feelings and improve day-to-day functioning. Sessions cover how emotions show up, what keeps reactions going, and small behavior changes that reduce conflict and regret. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at real-world improvement rather than abstract theory.
Cherington pays attention to cultural and spiritual perspectives that shape a person’s experience. She listens for how values, beliefs, and background affect responses to stress and relationships. That information guides the strategies she suggests and how they are applied.
In sessions she and the client work together to build skills for managing anger, easing anxiety, and repairing relationship patterns. Skill-building may include emotion regulation, communication practice, and planning for stressful situations. The emphasis is on tools that can be used between sessions to change what happens in daily life.
Her practice draws on proven methods from the research literature rather than on one single technique. People who want focused, practical work around anger and related concerns will find a clear, structured approach. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting to outline goals and next steps.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Cherington works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and building practical skills. One common approach teaches people to notice and reframe thoughts that escalate anger or anxiety, which can reduce intense reactions and create clearer choices in stressful moments.Another approach emphasizes learning and practicing emotion regulation and communication skills. This involves short exercises and role-play to try new responses, and planning small steps to handle triggering situations more effectively over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each client to choose methods that fit their goals, daily life, and preferences. That choice is revisited as needed so techniques remain useful and realistic.
