About Kerrie
Kerrie Blair is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri. She brings 12 years of counseling experience to work with people facing relationship, family, parenting, and mental health concerns. Her approach is practical and respectful, aimed at helping people make manageable changes.
Kerrie draws on client-centered methods to create a warm, interactive space where people feel heard. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful patterns and develop new skills.
Background and approach
Solution-focused ideas guide short-term goals so progress can be measured and built on. Her background includes work with mood disorders such as bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, and OCD. She has supported people dealing with trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, and intimacy-related problems.
Parenting concerns and family conflict are a frequent focus in her practice. Kerrie has experience with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and learning differences in children, and she notes a special interest in dyslexia. Additional areas she addresses include communication problems, family of origin issues, anger, self-esteem, and issues around gender and sexual identity.
In sessions she aims to avoid labels and treat each person with sensitivity and respect. Kerrie partners with clients to set clear goals and uses practical tools and conversation to help people move toward those goals. She encourages realistic steps and supports people through change.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Kerrie combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral strategies to help people make practical changes. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can explore their own solutions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors, teaching tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle parenting or relationship stress. Solution-focused ideas are also used to set clear, short-term goals and track small wins.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerrie will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then together they will try methods that fit the person's needs. The process is collaborative and can shift over time as different priorities emerge.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, and live chat or text-based messaging suit quick check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments and to use therapy around a busy family or work schedule.
