About Kerri
She uses straightforward, collaborative care. Sessions focus on what matters day to day - thoughts, habits, coping skills, and relationship patterns. Kerri blends client-centered conversations with tools from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try small changes.
Her background includes two decades of counseling children, adolescents, and adults in Florida and Indiana. Over that time she has supported people dealing with eating and sleeping issues, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and trauma-related concerns. She also brings experience with adoption and foster care topics, blended family issues, and first responder challenges.
In sessions she prioritizes practical steps alongside listening. That can mean practicing new coping skills, trying short behavioral experiments between meetings, or using problem-solving to handle life changes. Kerri describes counseling as a partnership where the client’s goals shape the work.
People who want clear, down-to-earth support around thoughts and everyday habits may find her style helpful. She works in English and is licensed in Florida and Indiana as an LMHC.

How Kerri’s approaches translate to online care
Kerri uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior ideas in her sessions. Client-centered work means the conversation follows the client’s concerns and goals, and helps people feel heard while they make changes. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes that can improve mood and daily functioning. Dialectical behavior ideas add practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving effective communication.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Kerri will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. That process is collaborative - clients and the therapist check what’s working and adjust the plan together.
If you’re considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow quicker check-ins between appointments. It can also let people choose quieter surroundings, use audio-only when video isn’t needed, or schedule sessions during a break at work. Ask about current session options so you know what formats are available when you set up your first meeting.
