Hear From Kendra

I view the experience of therapy as sacred and feel deeply honored to be invited into my clients’ lives. I love that my work allows me to bear witness to healing and the authentic human experience. Drawing on my specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I help people heal from the effects of both past and present traumas. My therapeutic style is grounded in a blend of EMDR, interpersonal connection, and evidence-based practices. When appropriate, I incorporate practical skills while also guiding clients into deeper emotional work. A deep understanding of attachment theory informs all that I do and helps me tailor the healing process uniquely to each client’s path toward wholeness and happiness.

I’m passionate about helping individuals, couples, children, and families heal from past wounds and grow in positive, meaningful directions. My background in trauma, grief, loss, and family dynamics equips me to support families and children navigating major life transitions such as divorce, remarriage, relocation, or the illness or loss of a loved one.

I especially enjoy working with young children and take a hands-on, engaging approach that resonates with them. Through play, we explore their emotions and core beliefs about how they move through the world. I strive to create a space where children feel free to be themselves and can see their inner goodness reflected back to them.

I also specialize in helping couples and families improve communication, rebuild trust, and rediscover joy in their relationships. I welcome even the most challenging issues and am committed to supporting couples whether they are working to reconnect or looking to separate with mutual respect and care.
