About Kerry
Kerry Dzikiewicz is a Rhode Island LMHC with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on everyday pressures like stress and anxiety, relationship strain, career worries, coping with life changes, addiction concerns, parenting strain, and anger. Kerry also supports people facing grief, sleep problems, ADHD, depression, and identity-related issues within the LGBT community.
Her approach is practical and conversational. Kerry uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters and change unhelpful patterns. She also draws on Client-Centered therapy and Motivational Interviewing to keep sessions collaborative and goal-focused.
In sessions she helps people name patterns that lead to angry responses and practices small, repeatable skills to respond differently. Conversations include clear, doable steps rather than long theory. Homework ideas and short experiments between meetings are common to build new habits.
Kerry pays attention to life context such as work stress, caregiving demands, or recent loss. She helps with communication skills, setting boundaries, and managing sleep or mood problems that feed into anger. Sessions aim to be straightforward and to connect practical skills with a person’s goals.
To begin, Kerry asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and Kerry does not work with international clients.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps that match what matters, which can reduce reactive anger by shifting attention to chosen actions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches concrete skills to spot unhelpful thinking, test those thoughts, and practice different responses when anger arises. This is useful for work-related frustration and recurring relationship conflicts.
Kerry treats the choice of approach as a collaborative process. She will help you try methods and see what fits your goals and daily life. Together you’ll set practical targets and adjust methods based on what helps in real situations.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm which formats are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or caregiving, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Kerry’s use of homework tasks and brief experiments tends to work well with online sessions, helping people practice skills between appointments.
