About
Hello! I’m Kendra, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping adults navigate life's challenges with compassion, authenticity, and ease. I specialize in working with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out—those who are tired of pretending to be "fine" when they are actually exhausted from trying to hold everything together. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Social Work from Florida State University, and I have over six years of experience supporting diverse individuals across Florida.
Whether you’re facing a mountain or just a few bumps, together we’ll find a way through—with a little kindness, a bit of laughter, and lots of heart.
Reaching out is a significant step and a true act of strength. If you are ready to invest in your mental health and find your way back to balance, I would be honored to partner with you. Please reach out today to schedule an initial consultation—you do not have to navigate this journey alone. Whether you are navigating a major life transition, struggling with career burnout, or stuck in a loop of overthinking and self-doubt, I am here to help you slow down, process your experiences, and regain your footing. You do not have to have everything figured out to deserve support; you simply need a safe space to take off the pressure.
First session
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, which is why our initial session is designed to be comfortable, conversational, and low-pressure. It is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and ensure we are a good fit. I will explain how the therapy process works so you know exactly what to expect, and we can discuss any questions or goals you may have. My primary objective is to support you in the way that feels most helpful to you, so you can leave our very first session feeling heard, validated, and hopeful.
Strengths
My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. This means we work entirely at your pace, free of pressure or judgment. I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to help you sort through the noise, reconnect with your values, and develop practical strategies that fit your unique lifestyle. In our sessions, you are welcome to bring your authentic self—messy feelings and all. I bring clinical curiosity, deep empathy, and evidence-based tools to help you feel more grounded, manage anxiety, and reclaim your sense of peace.
Ideal clients
Here is an updated, cohesive Ideal Client section that aligns with your revised tone—keeping the warmth and accessibility while remaining professional and inclusive of all adults experiencing burnout and anxiety. My Ideal Client My ideal client is an adult who is feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or deeply burnt out, and is realizing that simply trying to push through and pretend everything is "fine" is no longer working. You might be navigating a major life transition, struggling to balance professional and personal demands, or constantly fighting a loop of overthinking, perfectionism, and self-doubt. You don't need to have your goals fully defined or your life figured out to begin. If you are ready to slow down, explore what is holding you back, and collaborate on practical strategies to reclaim your peace and confidence, we will be an excellent fit. I welcome individuals who are ready to bring their authentic, unfiltered selves to therapy and are looking for a supportive, non-judgmental partner to help them navigate the way forward.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, goal-oriented approach that helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected—and how to shift unhelpful patterns that may be holding you back. Unlike traditional therapies that primarily explore emotions, CBT is all about taking action, building insight, and creating real change in your day-to-day life. In our work together, we’ll collaborate to set meaningful goals and choose strategies that truly fit your needs. Whether it’s learning to manage anxiety, navigate relationships, or boost your confidence, CBT offers hands-on tools to help you move forward. Through thought-challenging exercises, self-discovery, and new coping skills, you’ll begin to feel more empowered and equipped to handle life’s challenges. CBT isn’t just about symptom relief—it’s about helping you build lasting resilience, grow through challenges, and feel more like yourself again.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
Person-Centered Therapy (PCT) is a compassionate, growth-focused approach that honors your inner wisdom and natural capacity for healing. Rather than offering advice or focusing solely on problems, PCT creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can freely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. In this approach, the relationship between therapist and client is at the heart of the work. You’ll be met with genuine empathy, acceptance, and respect—no pressure, no judgment. You set the pace and direction of therapy, while I walk alongside you with support and curiosity. Together, we create space for self-discovery, self-acceptance, and meaningful change. Person-Centered Therapy can help you reconnect with your values, build a more positive self-image, and face challenges with greater confidence and clarity. It’s not just about healing—it’s about becoming more fully yourself.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) is a future-oriented, empowering approach that helps you tap into your strengths and build the life you want—one step at a time. Instead of digging deep into problems, SFT focuses on what’s working, what’s possible, and what meaningful change can look like for you. Together, we’ll identify clear, achievable goals and explore practical strategies that draw from your own past successes, inner resources, and support systems. This process often brings a renewed sense of hope, direction, and motivation—especially when life feels overwhelming or uncertain. SFT is ideal for anyone wanting to move forward, build confidence, and feel more in control. Whether you're navigating a life transition or simply feeling stuck, this approach offers concrete tools to help you make real progress—quickly and effectively.
