Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and take meaningful action despite difficult thoughts and feelings - it is often used for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns formed early in life to improve current relationships and address attachment issues and intimacy concerns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy and unconditional positive regard, giving clients space to lead sessions while the therapist offers understanding and support to foster personal growth.

Kendra works collaboratively with clients to determine which approaches or combination of techniques best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Finding the right therapeutic style is part of the process, and she partners with clients to adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for clients to maintain continuity of care, access therapy from home, and integrate treatment into busy lives while working with licensed professionals and therapists who guide the process.
