About Keri
Keri Scribner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. She supports clients facing family conflict and major life changes. Her style is respectful and compassionate, aimed at practical progress rather than jargon. Keri frames therapy as a collaborative effort and focuses on what matters to each person.
With 11 years of experience, Keri adapts conversations and treatment plans to fit individual needs. She blends approaches such as acceptance and commitment strategies, cognitive behavior techniques, and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and make different choices. Dialectical behavior methods and client-centered listening also inform her work for emotional regulation and clearer communication.
Many people come to her for help with attachment concerns like abandonment, family of origin issues, and blended family stress. She also addresses body image, eating and food-related issues, dissociation, emptiness, and co-occurring challenges. Keri can support those trying to cope with natural or human-caused disaster and other acute life stresses.
In sessions she focuses on simple, actionable steps: noticing thoughts and feelings, practicing skills between meetings, and adjusting plans as progress happens. She encourages small, achievable goals so change feels possible. Keri emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where each person’s experience is heard.
If someone wants to begin, the usual first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling. Keri works in Virginia and conducts sessions in English.
How therapy approaches translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. It helps people move toward meaningful goals even when difficult feelings remain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy involves training attention and awareness so strong emotions feel more manageable and decisions become clearer.Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their style, and adjust techniques based on what helps most. This collaborative stance means the plan can change as needs and preferences become clearer.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking.

Online meetings also allow practicing skills in real-life settings and can make scheduling across different locations simpler. Ask about specific session options when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your routine and goals.
