About Me
Sheri Bardos, Psy.D.
Florida State Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Business Consultant
International Life Coach
Why did I choose this profession?
​
It is hard to call it a "choice" when I never actually considered any other path or profession. Since I was five years old, I have always felt a profound pull towards helping others in this capacity. It feels like it is my very essence. I thrive on hearing your stories, understanding the unique characters that populate your life, and being the detective who pieces it all together.
To me, it is like untangling a complex web where the past intertwines with the present, all to help you craft an amazing future. Imagine being in a maze, unsure of which way to turn—left or right? From an outsider's perspective, looking down from above, I can help you gain the clarity you need to see the entire maze and make the most effective choices to reach your goals.
Helping others is not just what I do; it is who I am. The fulfillment from guiding someone through their confusion and watching them achieve their dreams is indescribable. This profession allows me to connect deeply with people, understand their struggles, and celebrate their triumphs.
It is truly an honor and a privilege to support you on your journey.
​
My approach:
​
Traditional psychology often focuses on human pathology, diagnosing people into limiting boxes. My passion, however, lies in human potential—helping you uncover and embrace your most authentic self. Coaches typically emphasize shaping your ideal future self, paying less attention to the past. I believe that combining both approaches creates the most effective process. One without the other leaves gaps in the journey towards self-improvement.
​
What if you could learn to magnify your strengths to achieve your biggest goals? That's where my holistic approach comes in. I blend the best of both worlds, integrating psychological insight with forward-focused coaching techniques. This holistic method ensures a comprehensive understanding of where you have been and where you want to go.
​
I am warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth. My feedback is direct but always delivered with empathy. Moreover, I teach you how to move forward, ensuring you have the practical tools and support necessary to thrive. Together, we will strategize to unlock your potential and create a path to your most fulfilling life.
​​I have served as a consultant for corporations to provide on-site and off-site therapy for employees. I have also given presentations on a variety of topics including marriage enhancement seminars, how to find lasting happiness, de-stressing in a chaotic world, and dating strategies to find your lifelong partner.
​
What can you expect from our sessions?
​
I take a holistic approach to healing. Just as an artist's palette is filled with many vibrant colors to create a magnificent piece of art, I draw from a diverse array of philosophies and trainings to meet your unique needs. In our sessions, I hold space to genuinely listen to your pain and desires, ensuring you feel heard and understood.
​
Every session will also be filled with practical takeaways and small but transformational exercises. These exercises are designed to be practiced daily, allowing your growth to continue rapidly—ideally seven days a week—rather than just during our weekly sessions. This approach ensures that you are consistently moving forward, integrating the insights and skills we discuss into your everyday life.
​
I feel grateful and honored to bring the breadth of trainings I have immersed in to my clients. I participated in a transformative in-person Anthony Robbins event, and the tools I gained from that experience are very unique. I have trained under Drs. Julie and John Gottman, top marriage experts in America, and Dr. Ramani Durvasula, one of the world’s leading experts on Narcissistic Abuse. I help my clients identify and heal from this uniquely subtle yet destructive abuse, breaking cycles and generational trauma. I have also participated in trainings led by Daniel J. Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson, experts in neuroplasticity, brain rewiring, and raising children intentionally while teaching emotion regulation techniques.
​
Grab your pen or laptop because you are going to want to write down the many insights, wisdom, and practical tools that burst forth from each session! Reviewing these is essential so that you can integrate them into your daily life, to receive the maximum benefit.
