Hi, I'm Kendra, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Los Angeles. I work with clients across the lifespan, with particular experience supporting teens and young adults in residential therapeutic facilities. I specialize in trauma-informed, strength-based care — with faith-integrated therapy available for clients who want to bring their spirituality into the work.
I meet clients where they are, with warmth, honesty, and zero judgment. I draw on strength-based, trauma-informed methods along with Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, CBT, and Trauma-Focused CBT — adapting my approach to fit what each client actually needs. My focus is helping people process what's happened to them while building the tools and confidence to move forward.
Our first session is about getting to know each other — no pressure, no masks required. I'll ask about what's bringing you in, what you're hoping to get out of therapy, and any history that's helpful for me to understand. By the end, you'll have a clear sense of how we'll work together and what our goals look like going forward. My hope is that you leave feeling heard, and a little lighter than when you walked in.
