About Bradley
Bradley Kerschensteiner is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on practical help for stressed and overwhelmed parents. He listens without judgment and helps people find clear steps forward for common problems like anxiety, sleep struggles, relationship strain, and parenting stress. He brings 18 years of clinical experience in Florida to each session.
Bradley uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs in the moment. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal oriented so parents can see progress between visits.
Background and approach
His work often centers on mood concerns, addictive behaviors, trauma, grief, and challenges tied to family life and fatherhood. He also helps people dealing with career pressures, compassion fatigue, and the ripple effects of childhood or family-of-origin issues. Bradley pays attention to how patterns from the past affect current relationships and parenting choices.
In therapy he blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive and emotion-focused techniques. That combination supports practical skills building alongside deeper emotional work. He draws on dialectical strategies when strong emotions or impulsivity get in the way of goals.
Bradley also brings experience coaching business leaders, which informs his work with parents juggling workplace demands and family roles. He offers sessions by video, phone, chat, or messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How Bradley's Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small, meaningful actions even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for anxiety, parenting stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes to improve sleep, mood, and daily routines. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotional responses in close relationships and improving connection and communication, which can help with intimacy-related issues and relationship strain.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Bradley will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then blend methods that fit. The plan is collaborative and may shift as needs change over time.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy family life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when bandwidth and time permit. Phone sessions can be a good shorter option or when video is not practical. Chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, homework, or when someone needs support between scheduled meetings. These options give flexibility for parents juggling work, childcare, and other responsibilities.
