Are you often seen by others as overly sensitive? Do you have an inner critic/perfectionist that never takes a rest? Maybe you identify as a chronic people pleaser, and guilt and shame just cannot leave you alone. I am committed to holding space for your authentic self rather than the self you were taught to be. My name is Kerry and I am really glad you are taking a leap forward by simply being here. Maybe your thoughts and emotions are difficult to sit with and you have been told that you "shouldn't" be feeling a certain way. Many of my clients have grown up in cultural environments that stigmatize help-seeking. Utilizing various evidence-based practices, I will open up a curious space for exploring and unlearning patterns while also finding practical ways to build self-compassion and attunement. I am extremely passionate about working with adolescents and adults, creatives, neurodivergent folks, highly sensitive people, and first- and second-generation Americans who feel they need a place for their unique, intersectional experiences to be validated and explored. Finding a therapist can be really daunting, so you are already taking an amazing step forward by simply being here. If any of the above has resonated with you, I would be happy to connect! I can offer a free 15 minute phone call to see if we could potentially work together.
