About me

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.

I cannot say enough good things about working with this therapist. From the very beginning, she created a space where I felt safe, heard, and genuinely supported. Through some of the most difficult moments of my life, she helped me make sense of things that once felt overwhelming and impossible to overcome.

Her approach is thoughtful, compassionate, and incredibly empowering. She doesn’t just listen — she truly understands, challenges you when needed, and helps you build real tools that you can carry with you outside of sessions. Because of her guidance, I’ve grown in ways I never thought possible and learned how to face life with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.

Therapy with her has been life-changing. I’m deeply grateful for her support and would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a therapist who genuinely cares and makes a lasting difference.

Kerry has been a wonderful therapist. I was in a tough time in my life when I first met her, and she has been such a great support. It was great to have another person look at my situation and my perspective and be so understanding. She helped me see things I didn't see when my judgment was clouded by my own dark thoughts and helped me build ways to see the light even in the dark. Now, I am in a much better state mentally, physically, emotionally, and socially. I don't think I would've reached this change had I not used Betterhelp or had her as my therapist.

I find Kerry to be easy to talk to and contains life experiences and the knowledge I am looking for in my therapy sessions. I find it very helpful when you can relate and talk to your therapist more than just looking at them like an authority figure. I appreciate that Kerry gives me this space to feel welcomed which in turn makes it easy for me to open up. She listens and directs me, gives me tools and advice and that is exactly what I need right now.
