About Keri
Keri Barrett is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She is based in Pennsylvania and brings five years of professional experience to her work. Keri emphasizes practical steps and steady support for people who feel stuck or overwhelmed.
She helps people cope with grief and loss, rebuild self-esteem, and find motivation. Keri also addresses body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or loneliness.
How Keri works
She offers straightforward guidance to reduce panic attacks and manage mood symptoms. Keri listens for strengths in each person’s story and uses those strengths to move toward change. Sessions focus on real-life skills and small, achievable goals.
She aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant to daily life. Her background includes licensure as an LCSW in Pennsylvania and Virginia. That clinical training informs her approach to mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, and workplace stress.
Keri draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s needs. Her style is collaborative and practical. She works with people to set clear goals, try new ways of coping, and track progress.
The goal is not perfection but steady improvement and more ease in day-to-day life.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online sessions
Two common approaches used in practice focus on teaching concrete coping skills and working on patterns that maintain distress. Skill-based work teaches breathing, grounding, and step-by-step ways to reduce panic and anxiety, which can help when symptoms feel intense or sudden. Pattern-focused work looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep low mood, shame, or relationship strain going and helps people try different responses to break those cycles.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals, day-to-day challenges, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you’ll try approaches that fit your needs and adjust them over time so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and needs. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or text can fit quick updates or flexible communication. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family commitments, or travel.
