ing family therapy

Hi, I’m Kendra. I love being a therapist. Not that it’s easy, but I enjoy the process of listening deeply and rolling up our sleeves together. Whatever is bringing you to therapy right now, I’m happy to meet you there.

I work with modalities that help us understand the ways that our experiences show up in our bodies, minds, and relationships. This supports you in developing the tools, awareness and conviction to lead your healing and therapeutic process. I also use a neuroscience based understanding of the somatic/physiological experiences of being human, and an attachment based understanding of childhood development and adult relationships. My style is relational. This means that I don’t just listen and nod – I share what I’m thinking and how I’m understanding what you share with me.

My approach is informed by a framework of intersectional feminism, social justice, and critical race theory. Working as a therapist has only deepened my commitment to and understanding of justice and liberation. This is foundational to how I listen and understand the therapeutic process. I have worked in high schools, jails and prisons, sexual assault crisis centers, community agencies, and in private practice. It is an honor to work with people from many backgrounds as they engage in healing. We each start at different places in a healing process. We have different skills and needs. My commitment is to meeting you right where you are and developing this process with you.
