Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kerrie integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help clients build practical skills and increase awareness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance techniques that can help with emotional regulation, stress reduction, and managing intrusive thoughts.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support clients who are working through ambivalence or seeking change. This approach emphasizes collaboration and strengthens personal motivation for goals such as recovery from addictions, improving self-care, or making career changes. Kerrie works together with each person to determine which approach or combination of approaches fits their needs and goals, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Kerrie can be delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and preferences. These options make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
