Kerrie Blair, LPC

Kerrie Blair is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri who uses a practical, client-centered approach. She combines client-centered listening with cognitive techniques to help people manage anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and family conflict. Kerrie writes simple plans with clear steps so people know what to try between sessions.

She brings 12 years of counseling experience. That background includes supporting people with bipolar disorder, mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and addictions. She has also worked with clients who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse, and with people navigating grief, intimacy concerns, and parenting strain.

Kerrie often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. She also uses solution-focused conversations to set short-term goals, and draws on Jungian ideas when exploring deeper patterns and meaning. Sessions are adapted to each person’s needs and pace.

Her style is warm and interactive. She aims to treat people respectfully and without stigmatizing labels. In couples work she says she does not take sides and focuses on clear communication and practical steps forward.

People who choose Kerrie typically want direct guidance plus a collaborative space to talk through problems. To begin, clients use the site Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to therapist availability.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience. The therapist offers empathic reflection and helps people set their own goals, which can make sessions feel supportive and steady when working through relationship issues or grief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, OCD patterns, and coping skills that are easy to practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerrie will collaborate with each person to decide whether client-centered conversations, CBT strategies, or solution-focused goal-setting fits best. That choice depends on the person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and it can change over time.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use tools and worksheets together during the appointment. Licensed professionals can support practical skill-building and plan-focused steps that work in everyday life.
