Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Fayetteville, NC covered by Aetna

You look like you have it together on the outside, but internally, things feel increasingly out of control. Drinking, marijuana, or gambling may have started as a way to cope, escape, or unwind, but now they're creating problems you can no longer ignore. You've probably tried to cut back, control it, or manage it on your own. Maybe it worked for a while, but the same patterns keep returning. I work with men who are tired of repeating the same cycle and are ready to make meaningful changes.

I specialize in addiction recovery, substance use disorders, and gambling-related concerns. As a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (NC), Licensed Addiction Counselor (SC), and Substance Abuse Professional (SAP), I provide a practical, structured approach focused on long-term change. Therapy goes beyond simply talking about the problem. We work to understand what's driving the behavior, build healthier coping strategies, increase accountability, and create a clear path forward.

Many of the men I work with are successful, responsible people who know something needs to change but aren't sure how to get there. If you're ready to stop repeating the same patterns and start building a different future, I offer secure online counseling across North Carolina. The first session is simply a conversation about what's happening and where you want things to go next.

I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore life's challenges, gain insight, and develop practical tools to move toward lasting emotional wellness.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with experience providing psychotherapy to adults across a variety of settings, including outpatient private practice and senior living communities. I work with individuals (adolescents to seniors) experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, chronic pain, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress-related challenges.

Im Kendra, I have a bachelors in fine art, and I received my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2022. I draw on four years of working in community mental health with folks recovering from substance abuse and behaviors that no longer helpful or are directly harming relationships and mental health. I have lived experience with recovery and loving people struggling with addiction. I have been described as a warm, curious, compassionate, and empowering counselor. I offer trauma‐informed care that is inclusive to all humans, healing happens when you can show up as your authentic and full self!

I believe everyone deserves to experience the joy and peace that comes from healing. If you're feeling stuck in darkness, weighed down by past experiences, or caught in negative thought patterns, you're not alone—and you don't have to navigate it by yourself.

For more than 34 years, I've helped individuals, primarily women, heal from trauma, build self-esteem, and create meaningful, lasting change. I have advanced training in EMDR and specialize in helping clients process traumatic experiences so they can move forward with greater confidence and emotional freedom.

My approach is holistic, recognizing the connection between your mind, body, and emotions. Together, we'll create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to reach your therapy goals. My hope is to help you move beyond simply surviving so you can fully experience the joy, fulfillment, and life you deserve.

My goal is to help you identify challenges, improve coping and determine the next steps toward meaningful, lasting change.

I have worked in the University setting as a college counselor and I also have experience working with adults in the community. I would love to walk alongside of you in your journey.

I believe healing happens through connection. I work collaboratively with clients, guiding them to understand the roots of their struggles, develop healthier coping skills, and build a life of balance and purpose. I bring authenticity, insight, and gentle honesty into my sessions.

Reaching out can be hard and I am here to help begin the process of healing and being there to help us become a better you. My goal and desire is to help teach you and provide you the essentials to overcome your obstacles. When life gets overwhelming at times, we forget to take care of ourselves.
