It is not easy to open up and share your experiences and struggles with another person. Developing trust and a sense of comfort and safety is a process. I respect that you will share what you deem necessary to our work together in a manner and within a timeframe that is comfortable for you. My focus is on meeting and respecting your individual needs, providing a space that is compassionate and open, where you do not feel judged, where you feel deeply understood, and where you can experiment with new ways of being and relating.
I seek to help you feel comfortable in providing me with feedback regarding what you find helpful and/or unhelpful, your perceptions of me and our interactions, and in communicating your therapeutic needs. I view such feedback as essential to building trust, increasing your sense of empowerment, helping you to feel involved and respected in the therapy process, and ensuring that our work together is both effective and tailored to address your unique concerns. I see adults and adolescents in individual therapy to address issues ranging from trauma, complex trauma/personality disorders, depression, and anxiety, to trouble with relationships, self-esteem, and personal growth.
I believe that each individual’s unique life experiences influence one's view of him or herself and the issues that have lead to their seeking therapy. Although many people come to see me to address specific concerns, I have found that these issues are often related to more general feeling that that their world has gotten smaller, of feeling limited, an experience of a lack of vitality or wholeness, of feeling shut down or overwhelmed by fears, of constantly confronting barriers that interfere with their ability to live the best life that they know on some level they are capable of living. I view therapy as a collaborative process where I work together with my clients to identify these barriers, increase self-awareness, and gain insight into experiences and issues that have created these barriers.
We develop an approach that fits with them as individuals and addresses their unique life circumstances. However, I do not see therapy as simply developing skills or tools to manage their symptoms and address these barriers. I believe the outcome of a successful therapy involves helping clients arrive at a place where they truly feel more alive, energetic, and whole. Where they experience themselves and the world around them in a different, more open, creative and positive way; where they feel comfortable in their own skin, and the world is a place where opportunity and new experiences await.

Kerry works with ages 18+ and specializes in working with young adults in their late teens, 20s, and early 30s. She offers in-office and telehealth sessions.
Young adulthood is about discovering who you are through major decisions in your relationships, education, and career. It is a critical time when you establish lifelong habits to optimize health and identify passions that drive and define you. Kerry plays an active role in therapy and challenges clients to closely examine negative patterns in thoughts and behaviors that are holding them back. She works best with motivated clients who are ready to do the hard work in and outside of therapy sessions. Therapy will be goal-oriented to ensure you are making the improvements and changes you want to see in your life.
With lived experience as a queer therapist, Kerry enjoys working with LGBTQ+ clients, including individuals who are questioning their sexual orientation or gender assigned at birth. For those interested in trauma work, EMDR is a highly effective treatment which can be delivered in-person or virtually. No prior experience in the arts is required for art therapy. This modality allows clients to use a visual language to externalize memories and emotions that cannot adequately be described with words. Kerry also has a background as a yoga instructor and is proficient in teaching breathwork, mindfulness, and grounding techniques to manage stress and anxiety.
In her spare time Kerry enjoys yoga, thrifting, interior design and decorating, and spending time with her two cats and dozens of houseplants.
