Hello! I am a licensed therapist in New Mexico and a proud native of this beautiful state. With over 13 years of professional experience, I have dedicated my career to supporting individuals through various life challenges. My areas of expertise include stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and anger management.
As a mother of four and a grandmother of six, I bring a deep understanding of family dynamics and the complexities of personal relationships to my practice. My approach is centered on creating a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts and feelings. I believe in a collaborative therapeutic process that empowers you to express yourself and work towards meaningful change. Whether you're dealing with past trauma, current stressors, or seeking to enhance your emotional well-being, I am here to support you every step of the way.
Taking the first step toward therapy requires courage, and I commend you for reaching out. My goal is to provide the guidance and support needed to navigate life’s challenges and work towards a greater sense of balance and fulfillment. I am honored to be part of your journey and look forward to working with you.

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.

She listens and cares. That's enough for me.
Simply amazing
Our sessions have been very helpful!
She was more like a life coach that understood what i was going through she is very nice and respectful .
Kerry is amazing. She's straightforward and gets right to the root of things - even the things I don't want to look at - and fully supports me as we explore those things.
Love working with her.
She’s great absolutely amazing
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.
My favorite therapist in the short time i’ve had her
