As a licensed therapist in New Mexico, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem issues. I specialize in addressing a wide range of emotional experiences, from social anxiety and isolation to attachment difficulties and mood disorders.

My therapeutic approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each individual's unique journey. I focus on creating a supportive environment where clients can explore personal growth, develop healthier communication patterns, and work towards self-understanding. Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, relationship dynamics, or seeking greater self-love, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.

I believe in empowering clients to reconnect with their inner strength, overcome challenging emotional patterns, and rediscover a sense of purpose and connection. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences and develop meaningful strategies for personal transformation.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Kerry is a friendly woman who objectively and patiently listens, offering appropriate feedback when needed.

Kerry is wonderful and knowledgeable. She provides the best information possible regarding my situation. My sessions with her go by so quickly because I am so comfortable with her.

Kerry is a great person. She listens and asks questions. Some might be easy to answer and some may be hard. If you can’t answer the question she will not force you to answer. She gives respect and allow you to answer when your ready.

Although I am fairly new to therapy I strongly recommend Kerry. She has been attentive , understanding supportive and helpful.

She has truly helped me not be such an emotional pushover. I’ve learned to open up about how I am feeling rather than bottle it up in side, and I don’t feel like a burden if I accidentally over talk one of our sessions she always listens to what I have to say completely. I definitely would recommend her if your someone who grew up with your feelings being invalidated and struggle to say what’s in your mind.

I loved every conversation with Kerry!

I really appreciate that Kerry takes the time to listen and provide supportive advice. She serves as a good guide in helping to manage my anxiety by providing worksheets to help me better understand myself and to provide feedback on what I am currently doing to help better manage these anxious feelings I may be experiencing.

When I first talked with Kerry, we just clicked. She is very easy to talk to, is a straight-shooter, and always seems present and not distracted. She gives me strength.

I’m really happy to have Kerry as my therapist. She’s a good listener and is personable. Our sessions don’t feel sterile and formulaic like I’ve experienced with others. She’s a person I’d feel comfortable talking to outside of therapy and that makes it so much easier to open up.
