About Cheryl Marrs (She/Her)
Cheryl Marrs helps teens, adults, and seniors across Kentucky navigate mental health challenges with compassionate, individualized care. As a prescriber at LifeStance Health, she provides medication management and individual therapy, working collaboratively with each patient to create a treatment plan that reflects their symptoms, goals, and life experiences.
Cheryl’s clinical focus includes anxiety, depression, and ADHD. She recognizes that these conditions can affect relationships, school, work, sleep, and daily functioning, and she strives to provide a supportive environment where patients feel heard and understood. When appropriate, she incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness techniques, along with additional evidence-based interventions.
Cheryl treats adolescents ages 11 and older, including teens, as well as adults and seniors. Her broad clinical experience allows her to support patients through changing needs and life stages while maintaining a thoughtful, patient-centered approach to psychiatric care.
She completed her education at the University of Kentucky and Lexington Community College. Outside of work, Cheryl enjoys hiking, kayaking, international travel, making pottery, and rock collecting. She has also gone skydiving and hang gliding over the Swiss Alps. Most of all, she values spending time with her grandson.
