In addition to being a member of the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy, Kendra is a certified facilitator for Prepare and Enrich. Kendra has completed levels 1 and 2 trainings for the Gottman approach. Kendra’s approach to therapy utilizes aspects of Bowen Family Systems Theory, Attachment Theory, and Structural Family Therapy. Kendra believes that family of origin experiences greatly impact an individual and their relationships. Above all else, Kendra strives for a safe, collaborative, and judgment free therapeutic experience.

Kendra states:
“I believe that just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you doesn’t mean that you can, should, or need to do it alone. As a therapist, there is no greater gift that being able to help someone heal through this process.”
