I am a licensed counselor and received my Master’s Degree in 2001 from the University of Illinois in Springfield. Prior to entering private practice, I worked as a junior high and high school counselor for 25 years. I have also worked in an inpatient psychiatric facility with both adults and adolescents. Most recently, I have been employed in child welfare with families involved with DCFS in foster care and reunification of families when appropriate. My employment experience in different fields has allowed me to see life from many perspectives and viewpoints. It has also given me ample opportunity to work with teens, adults, and families in numerous settings.
My goal is to provide a safe and welcoming environment for clients to address trauma, life stressors, depression, anxiety, addiction, bipolar, eating disorders, and/or gender identity.

Life can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, or the pressures of school and young adulthood. You don’t have to navigate those challenges alone.
Before joining Keri Powell Therapy, I worked as a high school counselor, where I developed a passion for helping teens and young adults through life’s most difficult seasons. My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I also enjoying offering Christian counseling when requested. Together, we’ll create a safe, supportive space where you can build practical coping skills, gain confidence, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.
