About Kendra

Kendra Young welcomes people who are stressed, anxious, or facing big life changes. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of experience. Kendra uses straightforward, practical techniques to help clients manage mood, cravings, sleep, and self-esteem concerns.

Kendra focuses on common, everyday problems such as anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. She also helps with parenting strain, career decisions, and the fallout from grief or trauma. Addictions, bipolar disorder, and ADHD are part of her stated areas of work as well.

How Kendra works

Her approach mixes strategies that teach new thinking patterns with skills for handling strong emotions. Kendra draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused methods. Sessions aim to build skills that can be used between meetings.

She keeps the tone welcoming and practical. Conversations are interactive and goal oriented so people leave with concrete next steps. Kendra adapts plans to suit each person's situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

Kendra practices in Alabama and holds the LPC credential. She conducts sessions in English and offers a range of online formats. People who want straightforward support for mood, coping, or relationship issues may find this approach useful.

Online support options

Practical approaches for online support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday stressors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on emotion regulation and coping skills for intense feelings and relationship patterns. Mindfulness Therapy encourages simple awareness practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kendra will work collaboratively to choose which methods fit a person's needs and goals. She tailors the plan over time, combining skills training, reflection, and short-term goal setting so clients see what works for them.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls let people meet face to face, phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between appointments. These options give flexibility for quieter check-ins, shorter updates, or full sessions without travel.
