Kerri Francis

​Licensed Professional Counselor

Life has a way of layering on expectations, past wounds, and other people’s opinions until you can barely hear your own voice. You might not even realize how much of your life has been shaped by experiences you didn’t choose. If you’re ready to shed what’s been holding you back and step into who you truly are, I’m here to help you do just that.

Uncover, Discover, Discard—Finding Your Truth
I knew since 10th grade that I wanted to be a therapist, but it’s my real-life experiences—as a widow, a mother of four (two adopted, two biological), and someone who has faced my own challenges—that make me truly understand what it takes to break free from the past and build a life that feels like your own.

I earned my B.S. in Psychology and M.Ed. in Counseling/Guidance from Texas State University and have spent my career helping clients untangle the connection between their past and present. My approach is facilitative—I’m not here to tell you who you are; I’m here to help you discover it for yourself.

One of my most powerful tools is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a highly effective method for helping you process and release the negative life experiences that have shaped your self-perception. My goal? To guide you toward making choices based on your truth—not someone else’s expectations.

Therapy for Those Who Are Ready to Break Free
I work with clients who feel stuck but don’t always see why. They wonder why they repeat the same patterns, struggle with self-doubt, or feel weighed down by things that happened years ago. When we bring those hidden connections into the light, self-awareness follows—and with it, the power to choose differently.

If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why am I like this?”, therapy can help you find the answer—and more importantly, help you change the script.

Rock, Family, and Finding Balance
When I’m not working, you’ll find me at my kids’ activities, rocking out at live concerts (because yes, AC/DC is the greatest band ever), or sneaking in a well-earned nap. Music has always been a way for me to recharge and reconnect—just like therapy can be for the soul.

Are You Ready to Find Your Truth?
If you’re tired of living in the shadow of your past, it’s time to take control of your story. I’m here to help you uncover, discover, and discard what no longer serves you—so you can finally live life on your terms.
