Out-of-the-box support for parents of high-needs kids.
Daily virtual support anywhere in Texas.
Parenting a high-needs child is relentless. Your life revolves around appointments, meltdowns, and never-ending to-dos, while your own needs barely register. Friends and family don’t fully understand, and the exhaustion feels endless. You love your child fiercely, but some days, the stress, guilt, and loneliness hit hard.
Imagine feeling more in control, not because everything’s perfect, but because you’re steadier in the storm. More confidence in your choices. The ability to advocate for yourself without being overwhelmed by guilt. A little more peace, a little less burnout.
I offer support that fits your life. No dragged-out weekly sessions—just practical, real-world strategies. And daily text and voice message access because life happens every day, not just on Thursdays at 3 p.m.
As a mom who’s navigated the challenges of raising a high-needs child and a therapist of 25+ years, I blend lived experience with support based on proven tools and processes.

The reality is, nothing about this is getting easier on its own. Why wait?
→ The guilt? The exhaustion? The isolation? They just keep building.
→ If you keep pouring from an empty cup, burnout is inevitable.
→ Waiting until you “have more time” means waiting forever.
→ Stress doesn’t just affect you—it impacts your child, your relationships, and your ability to show up how you want to.
→ Ignoring your needs now can lead to bigger struggles later: physically, mentally, and emotionally.
A few of the ideas we might explore …
-
→ Thoughts only have the power we give them.
-
→ Focusing on "why" is usually a waste of energy.
-
→ Mindfulness is the first key to change.
-
→ Some clouds don't have a silver lining.
-
→ We always have a choice, but we don't always have one we like.
-
→ There's no such thing as a perfect parent.
-
→ We hurt where we love.
-
→ Even shared experiences aren’t the same for everyone.
-
→ Therapy isn’t about fixing you—it’s about learning the skills you never got.
-
→ Your mind is creative and persistent, but it is seldom your best friend.
-
→ We are all doing the best we can.
-
→ Your feelings aren’t facts, but they are important data.
-
→ Avoiding pain often creates more suffering than facing it.
-
→ Guilt and love can exist in the same breath—it doesn’t mean you’re failing.
-
→ You can’t think your way out of a feeling.
-
→ Acceptance doesn’t mean giving up.
Meet Your Therapist
Hi, I’m Sherrie St. Cyr, LCSW. I’ve spent over 25 years as a therapist and 10 years as a stay-at-home parent to a high-needs child.
I know firsthand how all-consuming it is. The endless research. The sleepless nights. The isolation. The sheer exhaustion of navigating a system that isn’t designed for your needs.
My approach? No BS, no toxic positivity, no fluff. I offer real, practical strategies that help you feel more confident, more in control, and—dare I say it—a little less exhausted.
If you’re tired of feeling alone in this, I’m here. Let’s make this a little easier, together.
