He graduated from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary with masters’ degrees in Religious Education and in Marriage and Family Counseling, and is a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

He enjoyed supervising graduate students and developing a team that served the church and surrounding community. In 1998, Kerry was asked to join Intimate Life Ministries (ILM), so he and his family moved south to Austin.

In June 2003, a new adventure began as Kerry opened his own practice and counseling center, Abundant Life Counseling Services, P.A. Today, he serves central Texas and surrounding cities with professional, Christian-based counseling for a variety of issues, including mood disorders associated with depression and anxiety, relational problems in marriages and families, and sexual issues such as sexual addiction and sexual struggles that couples face.
