Kerri Brown, LMHC

Kerri Brown is a Hawaii-licensed mental health counselor who brings a thoughtful, person-centered approach to therapy. She holds the LMHC credential - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - and earned a master’s degree in Counselor Education from the University of Alaska, Anchorage. Brown emphasizes a trusting therapeutic relationship in which people feel respected and can explore what is helping them and what they want to change.

Her work integrates client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies, and she often includes mindfulness tools to help individuals notice automatic thoughts and emotions without judgment. That awareness creates space to unpack one’s experience, move toward self-compassion, and set clear, purposeful goals. Brown encourages small, consistent steps that build momentum and make longer-term aims feel attainable.

Her background spans multiple settings, including inpatient treatment for teenagers, group homes for adults, community support for young adults involved in the justice system, and school-based behavioral health. She works with a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship and family issues, parenting, grief, intimacy-related challenges, addictions, ADHD, anger, and career matters, and she also focuses on life purpose and self-love. As a therapist, she seeks to be a supportive partner who helps people identify a path forward and take practical steps toward their goals.
