In 2002, she opened her first private practice in Northampton, MA, and in 2009 began dedicating her practice exclusively to the treatment of couples in distress. 

Kerry founded The Northampton Center for Couples Therapy in 2010, where she acts as Director and Supervisor of the Center's seven licensed couples therapists.  Dedicated exclusively to evidence-based couples therapy, NCCT treats over 100 couples a week, and also offers intensive private retreats attracting couples from around the country and abroad.

Her sub-specialties include high conflict couples, couples on the brink of divorce, and working with couples in marathon format; focusing on the integration of the different strands of state-dependent couples therapy from the leading evidence-based models of relationship distress.

She lives in the hill towns of the Western Massachusetts with her family and dogs. When not immersed in her work at NCCT she devotes her time to parenting, writing and playing an occasional tune on her banjo.
