About Kerri

Kerri Wenner is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of clinical experience. She offers practical, straightforward support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, addictions, parenting challenges, and many other life problems. Kerri writes and talks in plain terms during sessions so parents can quickly know what to expect and feel understood.

Her work combines clear skills training with attention to emotional patterns. She uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, the Gottman Method for relationships, mindfulness practices, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on small, doable changes and on building tools that fit day-to-day life. Kerri practices in Oklahoma and holds LCSW credentials in both Oklahoma and Texas - OK LCSW 5597 and TX LCSW 106290. She conducts sessions in English and does not work with international clients.

Appointments are available in several online formats including video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Her background includes a dozen years supporting people through grief, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and chronic stress. Kerri aims to create a steady, organized process so clients can tackle immediate problems while also working toward longer-term goals.

She prioritizes clear steps and realistic tools parents can use between sessions. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session according to therapist availability. Kerri describes therapy as a collaborative effort where practical strategies and honest conversation come together to help people feel more capable and connected.

How Kerri Uses Therapeutic Approaches Online

She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change them into more balanced ones; this approach works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by giving clear skills to practice between sessions. The Gottman Method is another frequent tool for relationship work and focuses on improving communication and rebuilding trust through structured exercises and conversations. Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach simple awareness and breathing techniques that reduce reactivity and help with emotional regulation.

Kerri views the choice of approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Together they adjust the plan as progress is made so the approach fits the client's needs and daily life.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which adds flexibility for busy families. These formats allow people to meet from home, fit sessions around school or work, and use shorter check-ins when needed. The variety of options makes it easier to keep continuity of care while trying different techniques and homework between meetings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Gottman Method

A research-based framework for couples, focused on how partners argue, repair, and stay connected. Practical and structured, with exercises to try between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
