About Kerri

Kerri Brown is a Hawaii-licensed mental health counselor who combines professional training with a warm, person-centered approach. She holds a master’s degree in Counselor Education from the University of Alaska, Anchorage and began working in the mental health field in 2007. Her work centers on building a trusting relationship where clients feel respected and understood, allowing exploration of which behaviors are helpful and which patterns they wish to change.

She integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to help people notice automatic thoughts and emotional reactions without judgment, creating space to step back and examine their current state. Her goal is to guide clients toward self-acceptance and compassion so they can set clear goals and move through life with greater purpose.

Kerri’s background includes experience in inpatient teen treatment, group homes for adults, community support for young adults involved in the justice system, and school-based behavioral health. She believes that most people can improve their quality of life from where they are, regardless of circumstances, and she aims to support clients in identifying a path forward and taking the small, steady steps that build lasting momentum.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Kerri Brown uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy as the foundation of her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, helping individuals explore their values, build self-compassion, and identify goals that matter to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reframing unhelpful thoughts and patterns, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and everyday challenges. Solution-focused therapy is also employed to help clients clarify immediate goals and develop concrete steps toward change, which can be especially helpful for people seeking short-term progress.

Kerri approaches treatment as a collaborative process. She works with clients to determine which method or combination of methods fits best based on personal needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the approach as progress unfolds. This teamwork helps ensure therapy aligns with each person’s pace and priorities.

Online therapy with Kerri can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and use brief check-ins or more in-depth sessions depending on what is most helpful for the client.
