About Kerri
Kerri Shaw is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, family strain, low self-esteem, and depression. She brings a direct, compassionate presence to sessions and aims to make therapy feel approachable and hopeful.

How Kerri works
Those school experiences shape how she listens and organizes treatment. Kerri values curiosity and respect. In sessions she asks practical questions, helps people name what’s happening, and models grounded ways to respond.
She combines steady empathy with straightforward tools so people can practice new habits between meetings. Her work includes couples counseling focused on communication, trust, intimacy, and emotional connection. Kerri aims to help partners rebuild understanding, try clearer ways of talking, and learn small changes that make relationships feel better.
She keeps a light touch when appropriate and believes humor can be part of healing. Kerri also works with individuals, offering space to feel heard, build coping skills, and move toward goals at a manageable pace. Outside of practice she is married and a parent to five children.
She describes everyday life as busy and ordinary, and she uses that perspective to keep therapy grounded in practical steps people can use in real life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical skills and clear steps people can try between sessions. One common approach helps people learn communication patterns and new ways to talk about needs and feelings, which is useful for relationship stress and rebuilding trust. Another approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them against real-life evidence, which can reduce anxiety and low mood by teaching concrete coping strategies.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they try methods, track what helps, and adjust over time so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this style of treatment. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and role-playing exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or screen time is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simpler to check in between sessions, practice brief skills, or get a short coaching touchpoint without a full-length appointment. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life and to use techniques where they matter most.
