About Kerry
Kerry Dzikiewicz, LMHC, helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and major life changes. She also supports clients dealing with relationship strain, career uncertainty, grief, sleep trouble, and substance concerns. Kerry writes in a straightforward way and aims to make the first step feel manageable.
Kerry creates a calm space for people to talk through what matters most. She focuses on listening closely and helping clients notice what gets in the way of change.
Background and approach
Conversations are practical and goal-focused, with attention to what a person wants to try next. Kerry uses several approaches depending on what each person needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice and accept difficult thoughts while moving toward their values.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify patterns that keep problems going and to try small experiments that can shift those patterns. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Kerry works with clients to set clear, achievable goals and checks in on progress from week to week.
She aims to balance short-term tools with deeper discussion about meaning and purpose. Kerry holds a Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential and has practiced for five years in Rhode Island. She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It can be useful for parents who feel overwhelmed or stuck and want practical ways to reconnect with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and testing small changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. This approach is often helpful for sleep problems, worry, and mood shifts. Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Kerry works with each person to select or blend methods based on goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they try ideas, review what works, and adjust the plan over time. Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and coaching-style support easier to fit into a day. These options help people keep momentum between meetings and make it easier to schedule consistent sessions with licensed professionals and therapists.Questions people ask about Kerry
