More about Kendra
- 8 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Georgia. I have been practicing social work across multiple settings for 8 years. I received my Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Southern Mississippi and my Master of Social Work from Jackson State University. I have worked with a vast array of people who come from different walks of life including: foster care youth and parents, young adults navigating through life on their own, patients who are terminally ill, elderly seeking health care resources, individuals experiencing mental health crisis' and so much more.
My approach to therapy is meeting you where you are in the therapeutic process. I will tailor our sessions in a way that is unique and specific to your personal needs.
Life takes us all through tests and trials, however, we can learn from these trials and come out as a better version of ourselves. I am here to help you with whatever trial you may be experiencing in this moment. I look forward to connecting with you soon.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
