✦ The Process

What working with Kerry actually looks like.

From your first free call to your last session, here's how Kerry guides the work — gently, directly, and at your pace.

01

Free Discovery Call

A real 20-minute conversation — no pitch, no pressure. Kerry listens to where you are and you both decide if it's the right fit. Most people know within 10 minutes.

02

Intake & Intention

You complete a brief intake form before your first session. This lets Kerry arrive fully prepared and lets you arrive having already started the process of self-inquiry.

03

The Sessions

60-minute video sessions, focused and unhurried. Kerry uses the Take Back Your Self framework as a guide — but always follows what's alive in the room.

04

Between Sessions

Journaling prompts, reflection questions, and gentle practices carry the work forward between meetings. The changes happen in daily life, not just in the sessions.

✦ Group Program

Take Back Your Self:
The Group Journey

A small cohort of women — 6 to 8 maximum — moving through the Take Back Your Self framework together. Six weeks. Six chapters. Real transformation in community.

Kerry has always believed that healing and growth are amplified in community — when you hear another woman articulate the exact thing you've been feeling but couldn't name, something cracks open. That's what this program creates.

The first cohort opens this fall. Spaces are intentionally limited to keep it intimate. Join the waitlist to be first to know, and to lock in the founding-member rate.

What to expect

6 weekly group sessions (90 min each) via video, plus a private community space for sharing between sessions. Each week follows one chapter of the book, which all participants bring.

Who it's for

Women 45+ who want the full Take Back Your Self experience at a lower price point, or who want the power of going through the journey alongside other women doing the same work.

Founding member pricing

The first cohort is offered at a founding rate of $597 (vs. $797 regular pricing). Waitlist members get priority access and this rate locked in.

✦ Kerry's Approach

This is not therapy.
It's not a course.
It's real guidance.

Kerry has been doing this for 25 years — long before coaching became an industry. Her approach comes from a place that can't be certified or replicated: she has lived the work.

She moved from Denver to Lisbon in her late 50s and entered one of the most difficult periods of her life — narcissistic abuse, chronic illness, immigration trauma, financial crisis. She didn't just survive it. She used her own framework, her own pen and paper, and came back to herself more fully than she'd ever been.

"Every session I lead is informed by every session I've done on myself. I'm not sitting across from you as an authority. I'm sitting beside you as someone who knows this road."

Kerry works intuitively, following what's alive in each conversation rather than running through a script. She asks the question that cuts through. She names the thing you haven't been able to name. And then she helps you do something with it.

What Kerry's coaching is — and isn't.

Not this This
Diagnosis or clinical treatment Forward-moving guidance and clarity
Weekly check-in calls with homework Deep, real conversation every session
Generic frameworks applied to everyone Fully present, fully personal to you
Positive affirmations and quick fixes Honest inquiry and lasting insight
Someone who tells you what to do Someone who helps you hear yourself
Spiritual bypassing or toxic positivity Reality-grounded, compassionate truth

"Kerry is not a licensed therapist and her services are not a substitute for professional mental health treatment. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please reach out to a qualified mental health professional."

✦ What Clients Say

In their own words.

"

"Within two sessions I was able to see my life and my relationships completely differently. I don't know how she does it, but Kerry gets to the thing you've been avoiding — gently, but directly. I've been in therapy for years. This was different."

— Former 1:1 Coaching Client

"

"I had been in therapy for years and nothing eased my pain. By my third session with Kerry I had started to heal. Truly heal. Not manage, not cope — heal. I don't say that lightly."

— Former 1:1 Coaching Client

"

"Kerry worked with our entire design studio for a year. She changed the way we talk to each other, the way we handle conflict, and — most importantly — the way each of us shows up for ourselves. The ROI on her work was immeasurable."

— Creative Director, Design Studio (Denver)

✦ Questions

Things people ask before reaching out.

Do I need to have read the book first?

No — though it helps. For the 6-Week Program, the book is included and you'll work through it alongside the sessions. For a single session or the mentorship, you're welcome to start without it.

What if I've been in therapy? Is this different?

Yes — significantly. Therapy (especially clinical or diagnostic work) and coaching are different modalities. Many of Kerry's clients are in therapy or have been, and find that coaching addresses a different layer: not the diagnosis, but the identity. The "who am I, and what do I do now?" questions. Many clients do both simultaneously.

How do I know if I'm the right fit for Kerry's coaching?

The free consultation call is exactly the right place to figure that out. Generally: if you're a woman who feels lost, stuck, or at a crossroads — and you're ready to do real, honest work — you're probably a great fit. Kerry also works with creatives, founders, and artists of all genders who want deeper alignment between who they are and how they live.

Do you offer sliding scale or payment plans?

Yes. The 6-Week Program can be paid in three monthly installments. Sliding scale options are considered case by case for women in genuine financial hardship. Reach out directly to discuss.

I'm not a woman 45+. Can I still work with Kerry?

Yes. While Kerry's current focus is women 45+, her work and framework are not exclusive. If you feel called to work with her, book a free consultation and see if it's the right fit.

What platform do sessions happen on?

All sessions are conducted via Google Meet video call. Kerry is based in Lisbon, Portugal and works with clients in multiple time zones including the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and Europe.
