I work with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds, including young adults, first-generation professionals, BIPOC & immigrant communities, and men.
Asking for help takes courage, and facing life’s struggles alone can be just as hard—but you don’t have to. You deserve joy, a voice that feels heard, and the freedom to embrace your most authentic self. Together, we’ll explore how to live with purpose, overcome challenges, and create meaningful change. I’ll support you in using your strengths, living mindfully, and stepping into your power. We all need connection, love, and authenticity—when these are missing, struggles arise. You deserve a life that feels fulfilling and in alignment. My goal is to provide a space where you feel seen, valued, and supported on your healing journey.

As a male therapist I bring a down-to-earth and relatable approach creating a safe space for you to grow, heal and thrive.
I truly realized the critical need for more mental health professionals in my community after losing my father in 2006. That loss set me on a journey to understand the mind and how it shapes our lives.
You may find yourself holding it all together outwardly while feeling overwhelm, stress, burnout, on the inside. My ideal client is someone who recognizes this inner conflict, someone who is ready to invest in their well-being even if they are unsure where to begin. They might need help uncovering patterns that are no longer serving them, healing from past trauma, or simply creating a space to breathe and find a new purpose.

Question, how many African American Male Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist have you encountered? That's right, I'm a unicorn in the profession, and therefore present unique perspectives not often readily available.
The world isn't always the easiest place to live, and sometimes we just need people who let us know that we are cared for, that we are seen, and that we matter. You matter, and as your therapist, my goal is to assist you in growing in that truth. I don't believe any of us were created for mediocrity; there is no better time than now, to move beyond it.

Kendall is passionate about joining men and women on their journey towards healing and freedom.
Everyone longs to be known and loved. It is through the compassion deficits from one's past that individual's instincts to protect themselves arise in a manner that blocks life-giving relationships from forming. When light is shown to the dark burrows of one's hiding, freedom ensues.

As a Black same gender loving male psychologist who is also the first in his family to become a doctor, I personally know the unique pressures of being a high-achieving minoritized person.
Accepting New Clients.
As people who have often experienced trauma – big and small – from our families and a biased/oppressive society as a whole, we sometimes doubt ourselves, suppress our own emotions, and find ourselves in relationships and situations that continue the harm. Even when we achieve success, we can still have difficulty enjoying the rewards from our hard work, navigating new environments with unspoken rules, and healing from past pain.
If this sounds like you, it's time to start therapy.
I am here to help you break unhealthy patterns, get connected to your emotions, and cultivate relationships that affirm you.

This is why I strive to provide culturally informed, evidence-based care to individuals who often come from marginalized communities, including Black men and women, LGBTQ+ individuals, people of color, veterans, and many others, while addressing a variety of concerns.
My hope is to first build trust within our relationship given how important it is to feel safe in a therapeutic setting. I prefer to take a more collaborative approach in sessions, which means we join together to discuss your goals and create a plan tailored to you. I also focus on building confidence and autonomy so that you start to feel empowered.

Given I am black gay male clergy person, I am competent in working with those individuals with needs to address conflicting sexuality and sexual orientation issues-LGBTQIA+ Community Members.
My ideal client is one that perhaps is dealing with feelings of fear, anger, envy, uncertainty, depression, perhaps amplified by strong religious convictions and spiritual uncertainty. They are particularly uncomfortable with being vulnerable often negligent in discussing feelings and issues of religion and spirituality, but will allow a few conversations to explore what their particular and specific issues and beliefs may be, including past traumas and sexual abuse issues. This client would be open to exploring their spirituality (not religion) as a means of developing and improving coping skills and spiritual strategies.
