Clinical insight,
a coach's compassion.
Hi, I'm Kerry. I pair my background as a psychiatric nurse practitioner with my own lived understanding of recovery — meeting each person with steadiness, honesty, and genuine care.
Her story
Recovery is rarely a straight line — and no one should have to navigate it alone.
I combine my training as a psychiatric nurse practitioner with my experience as a coach in recovery to offer compassionate, personalized support for individuals and families. That dual perspective — clinical and lived — shapes everything about how I work.
My approach is grounded in trust, understanding, and helping you take the next step forward at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. I make space for the hard parts without judgment, and I'm honest about the work recovery asks of us.
I work virtually with clients across the U.S. and Europe, and offer in-person support in Southern California — whether you're seeking accountability for yourself or guidance as a parent, partner, or loved one.
Principles that guide the work
A few things you can count on in every session — the foundation of how Kerry supports recovery.
Safety first
Recovery only happens when you feel safe. Every conversation is paced to what feels manageable — never rushed, never forced.
Structure & accountability
Gentle structure makes the next step clearer. Together you'll build routines and check-ins that hold steady between sessions.
Compassion, never judgment
You'll be met with warmth and honesty. Setbacks are part of the path — they're information, not failure.
Collaboration
Kerry works alongside families and existing care teams, so support is coordinated and no one is left figuring it out alone.
Training & experience
A clinical foundation, recovery-coach training, and lived understanding — brought together for your support.
Healing has a soundtrack
Kerry is also a singer. Music is one of the ways she cares for her own mental health — and a reminder that recovery makes room for joy.
"Recovery is possible — and you don't have to walk it alone."
