Challenge by choice
Kendall is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Somatic Psychotherapist. Her approach is holistic, strength-based, and guided by integrative health. The foundation of her work is in positive psychology. Her practice is client-led, and an underlying theme is helping clients develop their intuition and improve relationship to self, other and the environment. As people awaken to the experience of choice, a sense of freedom and liberation emerges. Being liberated is empowering. Feeling empowered is such a resource! It can propel change and lead to moments of "success" and happiness.
Kendall helps people to improve their quality of life through somatic, experiential, and contemplative exercises. Somatic interventions are body-based (on the most basic level, noticing one's breath or body posture). Her training includes teaching others how to re-establish a positive relationship with the natural world and to see it as a tool for emotional health and well-being. Contemplative exercises are about meditation, mindfulness, and being in the moment. No previous yoga, meditation, or outdoor experience is needed to benefit from these universally accessible approaches. As all therapy should be, it is 'challenge by choice.' She offers possibilities and you take what works for you, leaving all the rest behind, like water off your back.
Kendall enjoys working with clients to enhance their daily lives. It is a hectic, busy world; finding time for therapy can be difficult. However, it is within the conscious creation of space that shifts can occur.
Her areas of expertise include anxiety / stress-reduction, trauma/recovery & growth, self-care / sustainability, relationship / transition challenges, family systems, peri and postpartum maternal health, and issues related to aging or identity. Often the family of origin is a place ripe with emotional strife; at times it is possible to work with the whole family system in-person or in the office. If that is not possible, our families continue to travel with us (internally) and are always available to access in therapy sessions. Kendall has an extensive clinical background in serving parents as they navigate the most challenging job on the planet; raising good human beings -- no easy feat in today's world.
Kendall provides services to people of all ages and backgrounds and offers group sessions for specific emotional health issues. Her practice does not primarily focus on substance abuse or addiction and at this time she is not able to serve clients who have active suicidal ideation. However, she can assist with referrals to appropriate care providers.
