Bradley Kerschensteiner, LMFT

Bradley Kerschensteiner is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 18 years of experience. He meets adults who are carrying heavy stress, anxiety, relationship strain, or struggles with addiction and mood. He aims to create a straightforward space where people can talk, make sense of their feelings, and try practical ways to feel better.

Bradley draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered work. Sessions focus on clear goals, skill building, and small changes that add up over time. He helps people learn new ways to respond to difficult thoughts and urges rather than getting stuck in them.

He also supports clients facing grief, trauma, intimacy issues, sleep problems, parenting strain, and career stress. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, impulse control, and recovery from drug or alcohol addiction. Bradley works with individuals and couples to sort priorities and set practical steps forward.

Bradley has practiced in Florida and other U.S. cities over his career and combines therapy with coaching for people in leadership roles. He explains concepts plainly and uses exercises clients can try between sessions. His style is collaborative - the therapist and client decide together what will help most.

People who want clear, goal-oriented help with emotional or relationship struggles often find his approach useful. He offers a range of session options to fit different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Bradley commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with client-centered work to meet a range of concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and depression. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and learning to act in ways that matter even when difficult feelings are present. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a trusting collaborative relationship.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Bradley will talk with each person about goals, past attempts, and what feels most helpful, then together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made. The therapist and client set practical steps and check how those steps are working over time.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for longer therapy work and face-to-face interaction, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat or messaging can fit quick check-ins or brief coaching between appointments. These options help people keep progress going around work, parenting, or travel demands.
