Kendra Wilson, LCSW - in practice for over 20 years specializing in working with clients struggling with eating disorders, body image, trauma, depression, and self-image. I use a DBT/RO-DBT/ACT/CPT approach with most of my clients and focus on values based goals and decision making and learning appropriate coping skills, mindfulness, and compassion.
My approach
I focus on using DBT, RO-DBT, compassion and mindfulness based approaches. I like to be straightforward and believe that being direct, respectful and curious helps me to collaborate most effectively with clients and use my expertise to help them reach their goals.
My focus
I specialize in working with clients with eating disorders of all kinds, depression, and trauma. I am a tele-health based therapist and use it specifically to reach clients who may not have found a good fit therapist in their community.
My communication style
It is my nature to be pretty straightforward and I really value openness, compassion, and genuineness both professionally and personally. As a therapist, I am more goal directed and want you to feel growth and movement on the issues that bring you to therapy.
My journey to mental healthcare
I like trying to figure things out, and people are the most complicated puzzle there is. I have worked in every level of care as a clinician and in various administrative roles and decided to re-focus on clinical work in 2022 because I was burned out in a leadership role and wanted to re-connect with my individual clients.
My goals for you
Whatever brought you to therapy at this time, I believe that setting goals based on your personal values is the best way to move forward.
My first session with you
Intake sessions are a lot of questions and getting to know you - on both sides. The rest of the sessions will be more conversational, but hopefully all focused on the goals you identified.
