About Bradley

Bradley Kerschensteiner is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who helps adults sort through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and addiction. He works with people who are facing life changes, parenting strain, grief, or challenges with intimacy and self-esteem. Bradley presents a calm, straightforward approach that focuses on everyday thoughts and habits to build more manageable routines and clearer choices.

He draws on 18 years of clinical experience in Florida and prior practice in Miami and San Francisco. Bradley combines practical talk therapy with evidence-informed methods to address trauma, family-of-origin issues, and problems like impulsivity or substance use. Sessions aim to identify small, doable shifts rather than overwhelming overhauls.

Bradley also offers coaching for career and leadership concerns, including work with business leaders and organizational consulting. He has provided executive coaching in local leadership programs and with teams across industries. These services are offered alongside his clinical practice for adults and couples.

In sessions he partners with people to set clear goals and track progress. Techniques come from several approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. The focus stays practical: change a thought, try a different behavior, notice what helps.

People who want straightforward, goal-focused work often find his style helpful. He speaks English and practices in Florida as an LMFT. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

How Bradley Uses ACT, CBT, and Client-Centered Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by teaching skills to stay present and move toward what matters.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical exercises to change patterns that keep problems going. This approach can help with depression, sleep difficulties, impulsivity, and many everyday habits.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration so the client leads the pace and goals. It supports people who need space to process emotions and figure out their next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Bradley will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and tailor methods accordingly in a collaborative way. He discusses what to try first and adjusts based on what helps.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce commute time, allow short check-ins during a break, or make scheduling across different locations simpler. Licensed professionals can use these formats to focus on practical skill practice, thought work, and problem-solving without changing the core therapeutic process.
