Individual Therapy for Trauma & Dissociation

For survivors of trauma, complex trauma, and abuse, everyday life can feel like survival mode. You may feel on edge, shut down, or like different parts of you want completely different things.

In individual therapy, we’ll work together to:

  • Understand your nervous system and trauma responses
  • Build safety and stabilization before diving into deeper work
  • Address dissociation, parts conflicts, and internal chaos
  • Heal painful experiences using IFS and EMDR

The goal is not to erase your past, but to loosen its grip on your present.

Addiction & Substance Use Counseling

Substance use, gambling, food, or other compulsive behaviors often develop as ways to cope with pain. I won’t shame you for how you’ve survived. Instead, we’ll explore the role these behaviors have played and help you develop new ways to manage emotions and triggers.

I provide support for:

  • Alcohol use & problem drinking
  • Drug abuse & substance use
  • Gambling
  • Dual diagnosis (mental health + addiction)

We’ll focus on safety, harm reduction or abstinence (depending on your goals), relapse prevention, and deeper trauma work when appropriate.

Relationship & Attachment-Focused Therapy

Our earliest relationships shape how we see ourselves and others. If you find yourself repeating painful patterns — conflict, withdrawal, people-pleasing, anger outbursts, or staying in unsafe relationships — therapy can help you understand why and begin to choose differently.

Together, we’ll work on:

  • Communication and conflict skills
  • Boundaries and self-advocacy
  • Healing from domestic abuse and domestic violence
  • Rebuilding trust in yourself and others

EMDR & IFS-Informed Trauma Processing

For clients ready to work more directly with traumatic memories, I offer EMDR and IFS-informed processing. We’ll spend time preparing your system — building grounding skills and internal resources — so that when we do memory work, it’s tolerable and contained.

This approach can help with:

  • PTSD and complex trauma
  • Anxiety and panic
  • Self-harming urges
  • Suicidal ideation (in a context of safety and support)
  • Shame and negative core beliefs (“I’m not enough,” “I’m unlovable,” etc.)

Specialties

I work with a wide range of concerns, with a primary focus on trauma, dissociation, and the many ways people cope with overwhelming experiences. Some of the issues I commonly support include:

Trauma & Safety
Emotional & Behavioral Health
Addiction & Compulsive Behaviors
Self-Relationship & Identity
Grief, Body, and Women’s Issues
Please Note:

If you don’t see your exact situation listed here, you’re still welcome. Many people come in feeling like their struggles are “too weird” or “too much,” and they’re not. If you’re unsure whether I can help, reach out and we can talk about it.

I so appreciate the authenticity that Kerriann brings to her work. I'm a colleague who has not been her client, but I have experienced her in therapeutic roles during IFS trainings. If you are a client who is looking for a skilled, intuitive, and straight forward tell-it-like-it-is partner in your healing journey, I hope you will reach out to Kerriann. Extra strong recommendation if you have worked with other therapists but find that you are still struggling with burdens related to trauma or addiction.

Kerriann brings a rare blend of warmth, curiosity, and grounded directness to her work. She is deeply devoted to providing trauma-informed care and has a clear passion for both IFS and EMDR. What stood out to me most was her commitment to creating a space that feels both safe and honest—where real work can happen. She is always learning, always growing, and always in service of her clients. I trust the care and intention she brings into the room.

Kerri is the most professional, kind, and direct, no-nonsense therapist I’ve ever worked with. EMDR sessions with her give you those “glimpse of clarity” moments that turn into real, evidence based progress you can feel. She gets straight to the root of things instead of talking in circles. Couples counseling with her has helped us communicate better and break old patterns. If you want real results with someone who doesn’t waste your time, she’s the one.
Judith Huntley

Kerri has been my go-to recommendation for truly effective therapy for years now. She’s insightful, to-the-point, and incredibly skilled. No human escapes trauma, we all have our own. This writes on how we see, speak and treat ourselves and other people, especially family. Kerri rearranges the way our brains view what’s happened to them and messaging about ourselves to help clear patterns that no longer serve us. If you need a well-educated and wise expert to guide you to new ways of being, here’s your girl. Individual, family or marriage therapy, I cannot recommend her enough. You will achieve results and actually get to the root of the whys. Worth the drive from anywhere.

I've been working with Kerianne for a little over a year now. The work we've done together has been transformative. I've accomplished more in one year with Kerianne and her IFS/EDMR practice than I have a decade in other therapy.
