ABOUT

Hello!

I'm Kerry, a counselor and art therapist based in Denver, CO.

​​I received my master’s degree in 2015 from New York University after completing a clinical internship at Bellevue Hospital. I worked in agencies and hospitals in New York and Colorado for the first 9 years of my career. My former clients include foster care youth and their families, survivors of sex abuse and trafficking, the community healing from the Sandy Hook Elementary mass shooting, and adults with severe and persistent mental illness. Most recently, I spent 3 years at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus working with Military Veterans and First Responders recovering from traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I started my private practice in 2023.

Serving adults and teens in Colorado and Florida

I'm originally from the Midwest, lived in New York City for 5 years, and I've called Colorado home since 2018. Outside of work, I enjoy all things art and design, climbing, yoga, thrifting, commuting by e-bike, and tending to my many houseplants. In addition to my career as a therapist, I have a background as a yoga teacher and photographer. I am warm, energetic, and deeply invested in my clients' success.
