How Kendra works
Additional areas of focus include aging and geriatric issues, chronic pain and illness, caregiver stress, communication problems, and issues like guilt or shame. Kendra combines several approaches to fit each person. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build meaningful action.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and change patterns. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills help with emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Her work is collaborative.
She suggests short exercises or 'homework' between sessions to try new habits and see what helps. Progress is tracked and plans are adjusted as needed rather than following a fixed script. She describes therapy as a team effort and treats clients with sensitivity and respect.

Therapeutic approaches that work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters to them and take small actionable steps toward those values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors through practical exercises, which often includes homework to practice new skills between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and improve focus, useful for managing emotions and sleep problems.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s life and adjust the plan as needed based on what works.
Online formats make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or want ongoing, brief contact between sessions. These options help fit therapy into work breaks, caregiver schedules, or busy days while keeping the focus on practical skill-building and progress.
