Great to meet you!

Welcome! I'm Kenya Wilkins, LCSW and located in a small town outside of Charlotte, NC. I have been in the mental health field for over 8 years. I offer telehealth therapy for children, teens, young adults, and caregivers navigating emotional and behavioral challenges. Whether you or your child are experiencing anxiety, ADHD, depression, parenting struggles, conflict, or the impact of stress and trauma—you're not alone, and support is available. I provide a safe, supportive space to navigate challenges, foster personal growth, and find balance in mind, body, and lifestyle.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I would describe my therapy style as warm, non-judgmental, and engaging. My approach is holistic, strengths-based, and solution-focused, and I use evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Family Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Exposure Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

What you can expect from our first session

I will hold space for you as a client and support to develop a unique treatment plan specific to your needs and goals. Together, we can work towards lasting improvements.
