About Me
Kerrie first became interested in bodywork after a car accident left her experiencing chronic pain and tension in her late teens. She enrolled at East West College of the Healing Arts in Portland, Oregon in 2019 and became licensed to practice massage therapy in the state of Oregon in 2021. After a decade in Portland, Kerrie became a certified massage therapist in California and returned to her hometown of Oakland to continue her practice and spend time with family.
​
Kerrie considers her massage practice to be vocational and prioritizes nervous system regulation with the intention of reducing both anxiety and physical discomfort. She values autonomy, informed consent, and patient input and favors myofascial work as well as Swedish and deep tissue techniques.
When she’s not practicing massage, Kerrie can be found hiking the Berkeley Fire Trails, drawing, or attempting to cook a vegan meal for friends and family without first looking at a recipe.
