About Kerri
Kerri Fisher is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and parenting concerns. She emphasizes a warm, accepting approach so clients feel valued from the first session.
Her style is collaborative. She treats counseling as a partnership where the client's goals guide each session. Kerri mixes practical strategies with listening and reflection so people can make small changes that add up.
Background and approach
She draws on several methods to match what a person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can help identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Mindfulness practices teach ways to calm the nervous system and focus attention. Kerri has worked with a wide range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety. That includes trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and career or self-esteem struggles.
She also supports parents facing the stresses of raising children and adoption or foster care questions. Sessions are available to adults and adolescents in Florida, and she holds licensure in Florida and Indiana. Kerri communicates in English and brings two decades of clinical experience to each conversation.
She aims to help people build healthier routines and clearer ways of coping. Her approach is practical and steady. She helps clients set small, achievable goals and checks progress together.
The focus is on useful skills and real-life changes rather than long lectures.

Approaches that guide online care
Kerri uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to shape online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Those tools are useful for intense emotions, relationship strain, and impulsive behaviors.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kerri will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try techniques that match those needs. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods based on what helps most in real life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls work well for full conversations and skill teaching. Phone sessions are good when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people share thoughts between sessions and get brief support without scheduling a full call. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and varied routines.
