Waitlist for new clients
In my therapy sessions, I step away from the traditional "talk-only" approach. Instead, I invite you into a world where therapy is interactive and dynamic, engaging more than just our conversation skills. Clients are from any life stage, ready to engage deeply in therapy beyond conventional talk. They're proactive individuals, from energetic children to reflective seniors, all seeking a therapeutic experience that's as varied and dynamic as life itself.

I work with adolescents, adults, and families who are struggling with a variety of mental health, substance use, and existential problems. The people I work with, regardless of life stage, are often looking to reduce their suffering and increase their sense of meaning and purpose. My first priority is to establish trust and help create a relationship that is both safe and honest.

“Am I transgender?” is the question you want answered. For your whole life, you’ve tried to fit into the gender assigned to you at birth, but you’re miserable. Your body feels wrong, and you don’t recognize yourself in the mirror. Between keeping up with the bills and inflation, staying informed about the latest political threats to your safety, and trying to find small moments of joy in your life, you feel overwhelmed at the thought of tackling the complexity of gender exploration. At the same time, you realize something has to change.

In my practice, I aim to empower clients to deepen their self-understanding, cultivate self-worth, and nurture self-love. Rooted in empathy, I gently encourage clients to explore underlying issues that continue to impact their lives. I foster a space where individuals feel fully accepted, valued, and respected. All are welcome! I’m passionate about supporting individuals who have faced trauma, encounter challenges in their relationships, struggle with low self-esteem, grapple with anxiety and depression, or just want a place to process everyday stressors (or someone to share your latest Netflix obsession with).

I am a trauma-informed provider who supports individuals and couples navigating grief/loss, conflict, trauma and transition. I am passionate about supporting folks identifying as neurodiverse or neurocomplex (eg. autistic, AuDH, diagnosed with ADHD, etc ). Clients I support often struggle with the impact of stories about who they "should be", questioning, "Do I matter?" or shedding pieces of themselves to create a sense of belonging. Understanding our stories is one of the bravest things we can do. Together we can explore yours, identify your values and strengths, and pursue healing and growth.

Do intense emotions come out of nowhere and hit you like a ton of bricks? Do you have trouble identifying and understanding what you're feeling? Do you speak or act without thinking? Do you avoid doing things because you're afraid they won't work out? Are you scared that other people might judge you as harshly as you judge yourself? Maybe it feels like no one understands you, or you can't find the type of relationships you want, or you have trouble communicating clearly – maybe all of the above. You wonder whether things are ever going to change. You’re overwhelmed, you're struggling to manage it all, and you're stuck.

My ideal clients have experienced difficulties affecting their quality of life. Trauma, depression, anxiety, hurt, low self worth, are some of the many culprits consistently robbing them of the opportunity to experience an abundant life. Their needs include the opportunity to acknowledge that which has impacted them and causes maladaptive behaviors, process it in a safe place where one can be heard, supported, encouraged, and empowered with truth assisting them in discovering their true identity.

Hi, I’m Kendra— a quirky, affirming, clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked with all ages in my career, but find I highly enjoy working with Gen Z and Millenials in navigating the unique stressors faced by these generations. Specifically I love helping individuals with life transitions, living as their authentic selves, and navigating the effects of trauma. I also specialize in LGBTQ+ related issues, and severe depression that includes symptoms of suicidality and self-harm. I particularly enjoy working with clients that have tried other therapies without success.

Approaching therapy can be really overwhelming. In reality, therapy with me is about stripping everything down and meeting you where you are. I became a therapist because I think everything begins with looking at life through your car window, and not holding any judgment on the feelings and experiences that come from that perspective. Many times we're led here because everything in our life feels too complicated- my role involves working by your side to learn how to untangle what feels too heavy and impossible. Through the therapeutic relationship, we form I want to help you get to a place where you feel whole.

Are you or your child struggling with grief or trauma? Maybe someone you love has died, and the grief is more intense than anything you’ve felt before. Perhaps you've received a life-changing medical diagnosis, or your spouse has asked for a divorce, and you're filled with anxiety over where to go from here. You feel overwhelmed by emotions and uncertainty as you try your best to keep up with everyday life. You’ve gotten good at putting on a brave face, but it’s starting to feel exhausting.
