Welcome! I'm Kerriann and I became a therapist because I love helping others to become the best version of themselves possible. My clients choose me because I'm warm, gentle, and help them to live authentic and fulfilling lives. I'm a licensed therapist (LCSW-C), a board-approved supervisor, and received my MSW from the University of Maryland SSW. I have extensive training in my areas of specialty, which are grief and loss, parenting, and anxiety.
We will start where you are at, and we will focus on what your priorities are, whether it's unpacking childhood experiences or dealing with the stress of day-to-day life. I am a solution-focused therapist, and I keep my clients grounded in the here and now; we only unpack the past if it's getting in the way of living your best life today. If you're interested, the techniques I utilize most often are solution-focused therapy, CBT, ACT, and SPACE; I can answer any and every question about therapy on a free consult call if you need more information.
Typically we'll spend the first session going over some information: why you're looking for therapy right now, what your relevant history/background is, stressors, coping skills, etc. However, I always begin by grounding us in the present moment and allowing you to talk through whatever is most disturbing your peace that day. Throughout the first two or three sessions, I'll make sure I have the info I need to provide the best and most appropriate clinical services for you.
