About me

As a licensed therapist in Texas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex emotional landscapes. My professional journey has been dedicated to helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, grief, and self-esteem issues. I have a deep understanding of the unique struggles that come with isolation, life transitions, and finding personal purpose.

My therapeutic approach centers on creating a compassionate, collaborative space where clients can explore their experiences and develop meaningful coping strategies. I'm particularly passionate about helping individuals work through feelings of guilt, shame, and panic, and supporting them as they rediscover their inner strength and resilience.

With over a decade of clinical experience, I bring a nuanced, empathetic perspective to our work together. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering guidance and support as you move toward healing, self-understanding, and personal growth. I believe that every individual has the capacity to transform their challenges into opportunities for profound personal development.

Kerline is the epitome of a professional, well rounded, calming, intentional, and caring therapist. She is quite skillful at listening to you while also offering self and offering new ways to move through internal struggles. Her grace, her wisdom, and her ability to create a healing space are exceptional. Would highly recommend her services.

Despite only recently knowing Kerline, her compassion and experience with grief and relationships has really helped me. Early on she has been able to identify problems, questions that I need to ask myself and strategies to challenge previously held beliefs. Her approach is kind, honest and constructive to help in my journey.
