Background and approach
With five years of professional experience, Keri draws on direct practice in clinical settings in Pennsylvania and Virginia. She emphasizes clear goals and measurable progress rather than vague promises. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented to fit each person's pace.
Keri believes clients are the experts on their own lives. She listens for what matters most and then offers tools that make daily life easier. That might include breathing strategies, routines to reduce panic, or ways to improve communication at work or home.
People who prefer remote care can use video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to connect. Keri welcomes international clients and holds a Pennsylvania LCSW and a Virginia LCSW. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that works for them.
Evidence-based techniques for anxiety delivered online
Many of Keri Barrett's strategies come from well-studied, practical approaches that focus on skills people can use right away. One common technique teaches breathing and grounding skills to reduce physical symptoms of panic and acute anxiety. These exercises aim to lower arousal and make it easier to think clearly during stressful moments.Another typical approach centers on problem-solving and behavioral steps to change unhelpful routines. This helps with workplace stress, low motivation, and repetitive worry by breaking tasks into manageable actions and tracking progress over time.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist asks about your goals, what has or hasn't helped before, and what fits your daily life. Together you try methods, adjust them, and pick what feels most useful rather than committing to a single way from the start.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and teaching skills, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows short check-ins, and messaging is useful for brief support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep consistent progress.
