Kerri Russo
I am licensed previous School Psychologist with 20 years of experience and vast training in cognitive behavioral therapy, ADHD, anxiety, depression, adjustment and learning disorders, social and interpersonal conflicts, and high-functioning autism.
After many years in the public school system, and frustration around a lack of services, TACC Consulting, LLC was born. I work with children, teens, and families in order to break down problems into manageable parts through collaboration, skill building and problem solving.
I hold master’s degrees in both Education as well as Counseling Psychology. I am a certified Strategic Intervention Life Coach and a graduate of the Mindful Schools Essentials Program. Most importantly, I am the mother of four precious sons ages 8-18, from which TACC consulting got its name.
My Philosophy
I believe that we can all change, grow and evolve in order to live a happy, successful, and productive life. I believe that we can all learn. I believe in feeling good in order to do good. I believe in positive psychology and mindfulness education. I believe that people want to be seen, heard, and understood. I believe in the power of community and learning from one another. I believe that not every struggle needs a diagnosis or a long-term commitment to treatment. I believe in solution-based strategies in order to make positive changes and build momentum through strengths.
