More about Kerry

Hello! My name is Kerry! If you're here, it means there is something you are looking for help with. This means you are brave! It takes courage to be vulnerable & ask for help. It says how much you value yourself to make your own mental health a priority. Bravo!

Mental health issues can be difficult to navigate. I have training and proficiency working with folks who have experienced trauma/abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, and grief. I would be humbled to walk alongside you on your journey towards healing and self-empowerment!

I have been a licensed counselor since May '23. I worked at a nonprofit for over 2 years, providing services to those who experienced trauma &/or abuse. I also specialize in grief, exploration of personal values, self-discovery, & -empowerment. I use pop culture to form rapport, make analogies we use as common references, & to assist the therapeutic process.

Counseling is tough, but is doesn't have to necessarily be unpleasant. It can be relieving, rewarding, build you up, & lead to the place you want to be. I would be honored to be of service, & sincerely look forward to working together! You have value, meaning, & are important. Let's chat! :)

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.
