Self expression is the part of the therapeutic process that allows you to heal, grow and discover new aspects of yourself.

Most of us need help with personal challenges or relationship issues at some point in our lives. Maybe an important relationship begins to fail, or we can't seem to navigate through a major transition or loss. Sometimes anxiety or depression descends and just won't go away. I have helped hundreds of clients through difficult times like these with skill and compassion. In my practice, you will find a safe, non-judgmental place to share your thoughts and feelings, reach a deeper understanding of your problem, and find new ways of coping. We will work together to get your life back on track.

You cannot believe what is happening, like this is not real. Struggling with the loss of a family member, your pet or a relationship can be isolating and hopeless. Living in fear after sexual violence or after your health worsen can be overwhelming. Trying to make meaning of this alone can be difficult. Going through something stressful may make you feel uncomfortable emotions, so whatever you are feeling is normal and you are a survivor. Either way, you know you want to do something about it. You want to break free from fear and hopelessness. You want to feel like yourself again. You want to feel joy again.

You might be a good fit to work with me: if you are exploring your identity as a 2SLGBTQ+ person. If you are a third culture kid or part of an immigrant family. If you're a perfectionist or people-pleaser. If you're reclaiming your sense of self. This is the place for you!

My name is Keri Cooper, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and LPC Supervisor with over 21 years of clinical experience working with older teens and adults who suffer from Anxiety, Stress, Coping Skills, Self Esteem, and Life Coaching issues. I use a mix of Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Positive Psychology, Client-Centered Therapy, Strength-Based, and Solution-Focused Brief (SFBT) during treatments with my clients.

Giving ourselves the time and space to be vulnerable, to reflect on our current selves and want to improve takes courage, perseverance, and self-reflection. If you're here, you have taken the first step in working towards giving yourself that time and space, and I invite you to take a moment to breathe, knowing you are exactly where you need to be. While working with me, I will provide you with a safe, collaborative, and judgment free space to help you reach your goals. Together, we will explore past or present experiences at your pace, while helping you gain insight into your world and feel empowered to make the changes you desire.

As we move through life, we encounter difficulties and may find ourselves engaging in actions that do not align with our values. Whether you are struggling with a complicated relationship, emotions that seem unmanageable or low self-worth, therapy can be your pathway to peace. I invite you to create a strong, genuine relationship with me in which you feel safe exploring what may be keeping you “stuck”. Together, we can build a life of fulfillment for you. I am here to create a warm, nonjudgmental space for you to heal from your past, accept your present and enhance your future.

Do you want to feel happier, do you feel stuck, want to move past recurring issues to feel more satisfied and fulfilled? Are you feeling unhappy in your current relationships, going through a life transition, divorce or break-up, have anxiety, stress, ADHD or feel depressed? Dealing with these issues on our own can feel overwhelming. Life can feel more hopeful and challenges seem easier to manage when you have someone who will truly listen and help guide you along the way. I am here to help you realize you are not alone, you can truly get through anything, that you are enough, and you can live the life you want and love.

Do you feel isolated, scrutinized, and uncomfortable in your own skin? Does it take maximum effort to accomplish minor tasks? Do personal issues come between you and your professional goals? Have you experienced traumatic events that continue to weigh heavily on you long after the event has passed? You are not lazy, unmotivated, or unfocused. These may be symptoms of anxiety, depression, and unresolved trauma, including those caused by the repeated micro-aggressions experienced by sexual, gender, racial, and ethnic minorities. Yes, therapy can help.

With 15 years of experience, and an eclectic blend of training and knowledge (including EMDR, yoga therapy, mindfulness, IFS, and more), I tailor my sessions to each individual. I feel honored to be witness to the pains, joys, and experiences of others. It's hard to sum up the deep work that my clients and I do, but overall, I like to help people increase self-compassion, gain deeper mind-body awareness, and connect to their own insight and growth. My experience is that this helps them to experience healing from trauma, see themselves with more clarity and acceptance, and feel more in control of and at peace in their lives.

Are you struggling with obsessive, intrusive, or disturbing thoughts that seem stuck or looping in your head? Do you find yourself compulsively arguing with "yourself" or doing repetitive behaviors in an urgent effort to bring down your anxiety? Are you beating yourself up for thinking these kinds of thoughts? Often intrusive thoughts can be very scary, violent, and go against the very things you value and hold dear. Sometimes it's very challenging to even say these thoughts out loud! I offer you a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space to share what is burdening you. I'll teach you to conquer the OCD bully.
