About Kerry

Kerry Dzikiewicz is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Rhode Island who supports people managing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, career transitions, and the everyday upheavals that follow life changes.

Background and approach

With five years of clinical experience, she draws on practical therapy models to help clients navigate grief, trauma, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar symptoms, and attention-related struggles including ADHD. Kerry also addresses issues like addiction, sleep problems, parenting stresses, and questions of identity and life purpose.

Her approach emphasizes a nonjudgmental, client-centered atmosphere where emotional honesty and exploration are encouraged. Kerry blends evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance and commitment strategies with motivational interviewing and narrative work to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

She aims to collaborate with clients to set realistic goals, build coping skills, and uncover personal strengths. Availability includes morning appointments, and sessions are offered through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches for Online Growth and Change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify what matters most to them and develop willingness to experience difficult thoughts or feelings while taking values-based action; it can be useful for anxiety, life transitions, and persistent stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, offering concrete skills for depression, anxiety, sleep issues, and mood regulation. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and the therapist's genuine presence to create a supportive environment for exploring identity, relationship concerns, and emotional healing.

Figuring out the best therapeutic approach is part of the work. Kerry collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and preferences, and she adapts strategies as progress unfolds to keep treatment aligned with each person's needs. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy remains focused and relevant.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels with technology. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into morning availability, and access consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to travel to an office.
