In my experience in life I have found that we all are faced with difficulty and challenges. In the process of our development we have crises that present problems and opportunities, often at the same time. In the process of grasping these opportunities we are often able to reduce the impact of the problem and grow to improve upon situations that we face. Consequently, my education, professional development, life experience, and expertise as a therapist, lead me to offer guidance and support in providing a means of opportunity for progress, development and growth. Therefore I extend myself to provide you the best services.

Kerri utilizes a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Strength Based Approach with her clients. Cognitive-behavioral therapy stresses the role of thinking and its effects on how we feel and what we do. It is based on the belief that thoughts, rather than people or events, cause our negative feelings. This type of therapy assists the client in identifying, testing the reality of, and correcting dysfunctional beliefs underlying his or her thinking. CBT is a structured collaboration between therapist and client and often calls for homework assignments.

You’ve accomplished so much. You have a fulfilling career, good friends, a comfortable income and lovely home. By all appearances things are great, and you feel completely in control in most areas of your life. But relationships are a different story.. they either don't stick or never take off, and they all seem to follow the same pattern - the initial hope and excitement of seeing someone new gives way to doubt, and once you get that sinking feeling, it all unravels from there. You see friends and coworkers getting married and starting families and wonder why it’s so easy for them. "What's wrong with me?"

You need to talk to someone. You're in a stressful place in your life. Not only is your desire for clarity and comfort at its peak but your need to find the right therapist is a leap of faith.

You can become energized by the unfolding of your story, and gaining new insights into your thoughts and feelings that are no longer working for you. Are you having difficulties adjusting to life with a mental health disorder or struggling to make sense of a traumatic experience?
