About Kerry

Kerry Dzikiewicz is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, career challenges, and big life changes. She focuses on practical steps that make daily life easier and supports people through grief, addictions, sleep problems, low self-esteem, mood concerns, and ADHD. Kerry aims to create an atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be shared honestly without judgment.

She brings five years of professional experience and draws on approaches such as Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize clear goals, small experiments, and real-world strategies that fit each person’s routine. Kerry listens first, then offers methods that match someone’s style and needs. Kerry uses a client-centered stance, which means she follows the person’s lead and builds on what already works.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. Narrative ideas help people reframe difficult stories about themselves and their lives. In sessions she focuses on skills people can use between meetings, like stress management, sleep routines, and communication techniques.

She discusses coping plans for intense emotions and practical steps for career and relationship decisions. The goal is steady progress rather than overnight fixes. Kerry practices in Rhode Island and provides services in English.

She supports people across many concerns, including caregiving stress, chronic illness or pain, adoption and foster care issues, and end-of-life challenges.

Online session options

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Therapy with Kerry often uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe troubling stories about themselves and their relationships; this approach helps with identity concerns, grief, and feeling stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, is used to clarify values and build small steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, offers clear skill-based strategies to change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood regulation.

Picking the right approach is a collaborative process. Kerry listens to what matters most, discusses options, and tailors techniques to the client's goals and preferences. She checks in regularly to see what is helping and adjusts the plan as needed so the work matches the person’s life and pace.

Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets the therapist and client work closely on skills and body-based cues, phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited, live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins or brief coaching between sessions, and written messaging can help people reflect in their own time. These options provide flexibility to fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
