I specialize in helping high-achieving individuals and couples explore how early attachment experiences shape current stress, burnout, self-doubt, and relational patterns. Together, we uncover how attachment wounds may show up at work or in relationships, build self-awareness, and develop healthier ways to cope, connect, and communicate. Clients often notice stronger boundaries, improved confidence, and a renewed sense of balance in both personal and professional life.

Are you or your child facing emotional, behavioral, or intellectual issues, with treatment delayed pending psychological evaluation results? You're not alone—many people remain undiagnosed for years after initial concerns, suffering greatly due to long waitlists and delayed diagnoses. Most importantly, they often feel hopeless during this waiting period. To receive services sooner, consider scheduling an evaluation to shorten your wait time, potentially!

Clients want to understand their relationships, feel equipped to handle life's stressors and learn how to gain the tools they need to live a functional life. The ideal client is the one who is trying to make amends with past decisions, understand the ebb and flow of setting boundaries, sit through the heavy emotions of grief and loss, and manage the invasive thoughts of doubt, insecurities, fear, or uncertainties. They want to overcome shame, guilt, and despair. Parents want to relate with others who struggle with parenting. Couples want to know if their relationship is repairable.

My clients are ideally willing to openly explore how current and past life stressors contribute to learned behavior patterns that may be ineffective and influence day-to-day suffering. I believe our life experiences influence us but do not have to define us or determine how we will function in the world. Additionally, we all have multiple identities, and we must learn to thrive in a world that is often ill-prepared to treat us with the respect and kindness we deserve. I understand the systemic obstacles often faced by people from diverse communities and seek to empower and support my clients.

These are strange times, right? If you agree and if becoming the best version of yourself feels so out of reach, then I just might be able to help with that. Actually, I am pretty confident that I could help... So let's see if we are a good fit.

I believe that we sometimes need additional support as we navigate our unique journey in life. As a young adult in my early twenties, I met with my first counselor who introduced me to a group counseling experience that brought life-changing spiritual and emotional transformation. Although I had come to counseling for one problem in my life, the therapeutic process illuminated so much more than what I could articulate or even knew I needed. This initial encounter is what drew me toward the counseling profession and deepened my passion and motivation for helping others in the same way that I have been helped.

My experience applies to a wide range of individuals, couples, and families varying in age, disability, and/or mental health disorder.

Hi, I’m Kenya owner of Kenafar Counseling. Are you high-functioning on the outside and overwhelmed on the inside? You’re the one others count on, but your own stress goes unseen.

I specialize in helping adult individuals and couples navigate life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and relational stress with clarity, confidence, and faith.

My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure how to navigate life in a world that wasn’t built for their brain—or for their child’s. They may be autistic or neurodivergent and struggling with anxiety, burnout, relationships, self-esteem, or identity. They are seeking understanding, clarity, and practical tools rather than pressure to change who they are. Their goal is to feel validated, build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create a life that feels more manageable, meaningful, and authentic.
