Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life

Kerri commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT helps people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety or low mood, with concrete exercises to practice between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress in daily moments.

She also draws on the Gottman Method for relationship concerns, focusing on communication skills and habits that improve understanding between partners. That approach emphasizes small, teachable interactions that couples can try and report back on in later meetings.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss your goals, try methods that match your needs, and adjust plans based on what helps most. Sessions are collaborative and paced so you can test tools and build skills that fit your life.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, mindfulness, and Gottman-based exercises to work well in remote sessions, helping you practice skills between meetings and track progress over time.
