About Kendra

Kendra Stenack is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and hard life changes. She works with clients facing trauma, relationship strains, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with adoption or foster care issues, end-of-life concerns, cancer, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster.

Kendra believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths into the room. She uses that viewpoint to help people build on what already works. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, focusing on clear tools and honest conversation rather than jargon.

In sessions she draws from several approaches, including attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness practice, and narrative work. That mix lets her address unhelpful thought patterns, relationship worries, and the lasting effects of trauma in practical ways.

She brings 18 years of professional experience to her work and holds a Master of Science in Clinical and Counseling Psychology. Kendra also has training and credentials related to grief, trauma, and hypnotherapy as described in her full biography.

Kendra aims to help people find steadiness after loss, major changes, or sudden crisis situations. She encourages small, manageable steps that fit into everyday life and helps people name what matters as they move forward.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how people connect and relate to others. It helps when relationship patterns cause stress or when past hurts affect current bonds. Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening and respect for the person's perspective. It aims to make sessions feel like a guided conversation where the client leads what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with clear, practical exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can still make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins on hectic days, and letting people choose times that work around work or caregiving duties. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices, and CBT worksheets to an online setting so clients can keep practicing between meetings.
