Now scheduling EMDR Intensive clients for Sept. & Oct. 2023. NOT able to accept new outpatient therapy clients at this time. I specialize in treating adolescents & adults with trauma histories, chronic illness, PTSD, relationship stressors, abuse, boundaries & other issues. My goal is to support clients in reaching the healthy therapeutic & life goals they identify for themselves, in order to lead a more whole, fulfilling life. For those looking for coaching services including my chronic illness community group, please visit itsericakendra.com. Coaching services are a non-clinical, non-therapy self-pay only service.
Treating trauma, depression, and anxiety are my specialties. I am an EMDR-IA Certified EMDR therapist which is my primary modality. I also utilized DBT, & Pain Reprocessing Therapy to support clients working to repair past traumas and/or unhelpful patterns of thinking and communication, in an effort to live more fully. I also offer weekend EMDR Intensives.
Weekend EMDR Intensives available for Sept. & Oct 2023 (not billable to insurance). Currently a waitlist for all outpatient therapy appointments (most forms of private insurance accepted). I work with adolescents - adults of various cultures and backgrounds. (LCSWA Supervision requests - also full at this time.)

Groups
Women's Chronic Illness Group (Coaching Program)
A coaching group for women looking for community and learning that leaning into healthy boundaries increases access to yourself & the goals you have to live with your illness. This is for women who have lived with and/or have been recently diagnosed with chronic illness and are working to balance their diagnosis and the goals and dreams they have for their life - while also building community of people who get it too. This is a 3 month group, with ongoing access to the community after the group ends. itsericakendra.com -> Community Group
