About Bradley

Bradley Kerschensteiner is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in Florida who helps adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship problems, and life transitions. He speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. His approach is collaborative and aimed at helping people regain stability and clearer direction.

Bradley draws on 18 years of clinical experience and blends several therapy approaches to match each person's needs. He uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to address emotions, behaviors, and relationship patterns. Sessions focus on skill building, clearer communication, and understanding how past experiences shape current choices.

Many people come for help with addiction, mood shifts, grief, sleep problems, parenting stress, career concerns, or struggles with intimacy and self-worth. He also works with issues like attachment wounds, abandonment, impulsivity, and men's concerns. Conversations typically target immediate coping strategies alongside longer-term change.

Bradley has worked across Florida and previously practiced in Miami and San Francisco. He also offers executive coaching and organizational consulting to leaders who want stronger teams and clearer workplace dynamics. When coaching is relevant, he connects practical leadership work with personal growth goals.

To begin, visitors are invited to use the site's Start Therapy process to match and schedule a first session. Sessions are offered in English and are arranged according to therapist availability.

How Bradley’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that reflect their values. This approach can help with addiction, anxiety, and life transitions by clarifying what matters and practicing small steps toward it.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It is practical for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with change because it breaks problems into manageable skills and experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit goals, needs, and day-to-day life. Clients and therapist review progress and adjust strategies together so the plan stays useful and relevant.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to keep consistent momentum between meetings. Because the biography does not specify which session formats are offered, confirm current options before booking. Many people appreciate that remote sessions save travel time, allow quicker check-ins when needed, and let therapy match into work or family routines more smoothly.
