Kerry Cragin

Having almost 10 years of experience in recruitment and human resources at consulting and start-up companies, Kerry saw too many professionals struggle through careers, personal lives and the balancing of the two while sacrificing their health and happiness. To help herself personally cope with the stressful corporate life, Kerry found yoga as a refuge and has been practicing yoga, meditation and mindfulness-based living for over 8 years. Taking her practice off the mat, Kerry pursued formal education to help fellow busy professionals find more calm outside of the workplace. After permanetly leaving her career in Human Resources, Kerry joined Calm Minds full-time as a licensed psychotherapist, yoga therapist and mindfulness trainer in early 2016. 

 

Kerry specializes in yoga and mindfulness based treatment. She has extensive training and experience using mindfulness based integrative treatment styles to ease client’s struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, insecurities, interpersonal relationships, trauma, Type-A tendencies, and physical pain. Kerry's unique, holistic approach to well-being guides clients to develop a preventative and proactive mindfulness based toolkit to help them be more resilient. Kerry operates out of the Calm Mind's studio, welcoming clients into an open, tranquil environment where chairs are not necessary and clients can get comfortable. 

 

Around town, Kerry can be found focusing on her own practice, walking along the lake with her husband and bull terrier (Nellie), cooking up meals at home or going out with friends to the Chicago's amazing restaurants. She takes advantage of times to slow down by unplugging and relaxing in at the beach in Southwest Michigan.
