Kerri Ann Wilson-Jones
I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Work (Special) from the University of the West Indies in Jamaica and a Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology from the Graduate School of Theology in Jamaica. I have an extensive background in social work and counseling and have approximately ten years of combined experience, having worked as a Mental Health Therapist, an Outpatient Therapist, and a Licensed Professional Counselor. I work well with couples and persons who have experienced trauma and anxiety. My goal is to create a safe space where clients can process their concerns and work towards their goals in order to become the best version of them self.

First session
Typically, I view the first session as getting to know the client and trying to understand their goals for therapy.
Strengths
My greatest strengths as a provider I believe is my ability to listen and really hear what's important for the client. My ability to empathize with the client, I believe also sets me apart as well.
Ideal clients
I believe I am best positioned to work with persons who have experienced trauma and or couples as well.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral therapy is an excellent modality for treatment based on my experience with clients. It provides a means for clients to understand how cognition affects emotions and behaviors. I have integrated the use of mindfulness and self care in my work with clients.
