I am Cheryl Norris, a dedicated and compassionate Nurse Practitioner specializing in psychiatric and mental health care. With over a decade of experience in various healthcare settings, I am committed to providing personalized and comprehensive care to individuals of all ages.
Currently, I run a private practice, PsychSolutions, PLLC, where I offer telehealth services tailored to mental health needs, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD. My background includes working in the Behavioral Health, where I manage and treat mental illnesses, from anxiety and depression to bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
I've also spent significant time in fast-paced environments like the Emergency Department, where I assessed and treated patients with multiple health concerns. Additionally, I have contributed to groundbreaking research at the Carolina Institute of Clinical Research, focusing on COVID-19 vaccines and gynecological studies.
My home health care visits through United Healthcare allowed me to provide in-depth assessments and care for Medicare patients with complex health conditions. I pride myself on being thorough, empathetic, and always putting my patients' needs first.
Whether it’s managing chronic conditions, conducting diagnostic interventions, or providing support and education, my goal is always to ensure the best possible outcome for my patients. Reach out to me if you're looking for a dedicated partner in your health journey.

How does cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) work and how can it help?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works by helping clients identify and change negative thoughts and behaviors. It involves recognizing distorted thinking, challenging those thoughts, modifying behaviors, and building practical skills. CBT can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, teach effective coping strategies, and improve overall functioning by promoting healthier thought patterns and behaviors.
What should people thinking about working with you, know about you?
People considering working with me should know that I am dedicated to providing personalized and comprehensive mental health care. With over a decade of experience in various healthcare settings, including Behavioral Health and Emergency Departments, I bring a wealth of knowledge and empathy to my practice.
I run a private practice, PsychSolutions, PLLC, where I offer telehealth services tailored to a range of mental health needs, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD. My approach combines medication management with therapy, using methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).
I believe in the importance of both medication and therapy for effective treatment and strive to work with clients who are committed to their own health journey. My goal is to ensure the best possible outcomes for my patients by offering support, education, and a thorough, empathetic approach to care.
How do you work with clients with anxiety?
To work with clients with anxiety, I start with a thorough assessment and diagnosis. I may prescribe and manage medications and use therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). I also provide support, teach coping strategies, and develop personalized treatment plans. My aim is to offer a comprehensive approach to help clients manage their anxiety and enhance their quality of life.
How do you work with clients with depression?
When working with clients with depression, I start with a thorough assessment and diagnosis. I may prescribe and manage medications, and use therapy methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). I also provide support, education, and collaborate with clients to develop a personalized treatment plan. My goal is to offer a comprehensive, empathetic approach to help manage depression and improve overall well-being.
How does emotionally focused therapy work and how can it help?
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) helps clients understand and process their emotions to improve relationships and personal well-being. It involves exploring emotional patterns, expressing emotions healthily, and developing new ways of relating to others. EFT can enhance emotional awareness, improve communication and connection in relationships, resolve conflicts, and support personal growth.
How can you provide care remotely?
I provide care remotely through telehealth services, which allow clients to receive mental health treatment from the comfort of their own homes. This involves virtual appointments where I can assess, diagnose, and manage conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD, among others. Telehealth gives clients the flexibility and convenience to focus on their treatment without the need to visit a physical location, while still receiving comprehensive and personalized care.
