Kerri is by far one of the best counselors I have ever had. She truly makes you feel comfortable, supported and heard. She is truly gifted in her profession. I love how easy she is to talk to and you always end each session feeling fully understood. I have never been this motivated to work with my counselor and do the self work to become as healthy as possible. I have already recommended others to her for how much she has already helped me. 10 out of 10.

Welcome to a Journey of Transformation

Hello! I’m Kerri, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Certified Integrative Mental Health Provider (CIMHP), dedicated to fostering healing and personal growth. With over a decade of experience, I have honed my clinical skills to not just meet, but exceed the therapeutic goals of those I work with.

My Approach

I believe in meeting you right where you are in your journey. Each session is tailored to integrate your personal strengths with the most effective strategies available. My training in both the Gottman Method and trauma-based therapy enriches my ability to address diverse relationship dynamics and deep-seated emotional challenges.

Specializations

Couples Therapy: Utilizing the Gottman Method, I help couples rebuild healthy relationships grounded in mutual respect and understanding.

Trauma Therapy: I apply trauma-informed techniques to help individuals navigate and heal from their past experiences, fostering resilience and empowerment.

Holistic Wellness: As a CIMHP, I integrate aspects of physical and mental wellness to enhance your overall well-being.

When addressing anxiety, depression, and anger management in your portfolio, it's important to communicate both a deep understanding of these issues and a compassionate approach to helping clients manage and overcome them. Here’s how you could describe your services for each:

Anxiety

In today's world, anxiety can feel like a constant companion. In my therapy sessions, I aim to offer a safe and calming environment where you can learn to understand and manage your anxiety. We'll explore the roots of your anxiety, identify triggers, and employ techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) to help you develop healthier thought patterns and relaxation skills. My goal is to empower you with the tools to regain control over your anxiety, enhancing your overall quality of life.

Depression

Depression can dim the joy of living, making even everyday tasks feel overwhelming. As a therapist, I provide a supportive space to talk openly about your feelings and challenges. We'll work together to uncover the underlying causes of your depression and address them using a blend of therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and integrative methods that consider your overall wellness. By building on your strengths and fostering resilience, our sessions will help you rediscover hope and work towards a more fulfilling life.

Anger Management

Anger, though a natural emotion, can disrupt your life and relationships if not managed properly. In our sessions, we focus on understanding the sources of your anger and learning to express it in healthy ways. Using evidence-based strategies like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and mindfulness techniques, you will learn to recognize triggers, control your responses, and communicate your feelings more effectively. My approach is centered on helping you transform anger into a constructive force that advocates for your needs without causing harm or regret.

Therapeutic Techniques

My practice is rooted in evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). These methodologies are proven to facilitate positive change and are adapted to fit your unique needs and lifestyle.

Your Partner in Healing

I am committed to being a supportive and genuine partner in your therapeutic journey. Together, we will explore avenues for growth and healing, aiming for the quality of life you aspire to achieve.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
