About Kerri
Kerri Wenner is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of clinical experience based in Oklahoma. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, addictions, grief, parenting strains, and career changes. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer communication rather than labels or quick fixes.
Kerri uses a mix of evidence-informed methods aimed at helping people notice patterns and try new responses. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts that fuel difficult feelings. She also draws on the Gottman Method to address relationship interaction patterns and uses mindfulness practices to lower reactivity.
In session she helps people unpack what triggers strong reactions, practice different ways to respond, and rebuild trust in everyday interactions. Conversations often include small experiments between meetings and skills to manage stress, sleep, and impulse control. Kerri also supports people facing grief, recovery from addiction, and complex life transitions.
Her background includes work with adoption and foster care concerns, blended family issues, chronic pain and illness, ADHD, and situations involving infidelity, communication breakdowns, and control or commitment worries. That experience informs how she approaches treatment goals and practical problem solving.
Kerri aims to collaborate with each person to find useful strategies for anger, relationship strain, and emotional regulation. She asks for clear, manageable goals and focuses on skills people can use at home, at work, and in close relationships.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on spotting and adjusting the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems like anger and anxiety going. Online sessions can concentrate on specific skills such as identifying triggers, testing new responses, and setting small between-session tasks that build new habits.The Gottman Method looks at how couples interact and teaches concrete ways to reduce criticism and build better communication. In virtual sessions this can mean practicing communication exercises and reviewing interaction patterns together with clear, structured feedback.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity and increase awareness of emotional states. These practices are easy to try during sessions and to carry into daily life between meetings.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and the problems at hand. That plan can change as progress and needs become clearer.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. The focus is on practical strategies you can use in everyday situations rather than one-off solutions.
