“Hello - my name is Kerry”
“Kerry’s ability to listen attentively and create a safe, non-judgemental space has helped colleagues feel understood and supported in their mental health.”
I created The Law Space from a simple but profound belief that those who contain others should also be contained.

Her integrative approach tailors therapy and supervision to each individual, drawing from evidence-based modalities including Internal Family Systems, CBT, trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, and compassion-focused therapy.
