Keri Powell
About
Empowering women through a journey of self-discovery, Keri Powell brings a unique blend of compassion and expertise to her mental health practice. As a certified guided imagery therapist, Keri offers an eclectic approach to healing that goes beyond traditional talk therapy, embracing the mind-body-spirit connection.
Keri's practice is built on a foundation of trust and safety, creating an environment where clients, particularly women, can explore their inner selves and work through a wide range of mental health challenges. Her extensive experience includes treating depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, co-dependency, trauma, personality disorders, and substance abuse issues. This broad expertise allows her to tailor her approach to each client's unique needs and comfort level.
At the heart of Keri's therapeutic approach is her passion for empowering women and promoting self-acceptance. She skillfully guides clients through a process of self-discovery, helping them gain new insights and realizations that can lead to profound personal growth. Her toolkit includes a variety of techniques, from standard cognitive behavioral approaches to dialectical behavior treatment plans, all underpinned by mindfulness practices.
Keri's certification in guided imagery therapy from Synergy Seminars in Palm Springs, California, sets her apart in the field. This powerful technique is particularly effective for promoting relaxation, managing stress, aiding in physical healing, facilitating the grieving process, and resolving past trauma. Keri is especially passionate about using guided imagery to help individuals with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, offering a gentle yet effective path to healing without re-traumatizing clients.
As part of a collaborative practice, Keri offers a unique advantage for couples and families seeking therapy. While individuals receive personalized care with their own counselor, there's also the opportunity for family therapy sessions that bring everyone together. This rare combination of individual attention and family collaboration creates a comprehensive and valuable therapeutic experience.
Keri Powell's approach to therapy is as diverse as the clients she serves. Whether utilizing guided imagery, cognitive behavioral techniques, or mindfulness practices, her goal remains constant: to empower her clients, promote self-acceptance, and guide them towards new insights and realizations. With Keri, therapy becomes more than just treatment—it's a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
