A space to feel safe, seen, and gently led back to the Shepherd.
I’m Halle Cherry—licensed therapist, Jesus follower, and founder of For the Sheepish Counseling Ministries.
This space was born out of a deep desire to create the kind of care I wish more people knew was possible. A space where your faith and mental health can sit in the same room. Where your story matters, and your struggles are met with grace, not shame.
The name comes from Luke 15:6, where the Shepherd rejoices over the one sheep who wandered. That verse reminds me we’re never too far gone to be found. We’re all a little sheepish sometimes—but we’re always welcomed home.
For the Sheepish exists to hold space for every season of soul and story. You don’t have to be “fixed” to be fully seen here. Just come as you are.
