About Me

I’m Cheree McCallon, a licensed clinical social worker, somatic practitioner, and certified substance use counselor. I work with adults navigating trauma, chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, and the lasting effects of experiences that live in the body as much as the mind.

My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, somatic-based care. Rather than focusing solely on insight or symptom management, I help clients build awareness of their nervous system, develop internal safety, and reconnect with their body at a pace that feels supportive and respectful. Healing doesn’t have to be overwhelming or retraumatizing—it can be steady, collaborative, and deeply human.

I believe effective therapy is built on safety, curiosity, and trust. In our work together, I aim to create a space where you don’t have to perform, explain yourself perfectly, or rush your process. We pay attention to what your system is communicating, work with patterns that once helped you survive, and gently support new ways of responding to stress, relationships, and life transitions.

Outside of my clinical work, I also created The Regulated Raccoon, a separate creative project that uses humor and design to make conversations about nervous system regulation and mental health more approachable. This creative work is not part of therapy services, but it reflects the same values I bring into the therapy room: compassion, honesty, and respect for the human experience.

Whether you’re seeking support for trauma, emotional regulation, or simply a deeper sense of steadiness in your life, my goal is to meet you where you are and support healing that feels real, grounded, and sustainable.
