My name is Kendra O'Berry and I am a LCSW. I have 3 years of experience working with clients with a range of concerns from stress and anxiety to aging and terminal illnesses. I received my Bachelors in English and my Masters in Social Work from Valdosta State University. My therapeutic approaches are not one size fits all. I have experience with using CBT, motivational interviewing, mindfulness/relaxation techniques, existential therapy, solution focus therapy, and a humanistic/person centered approach. However, the methods and techniques I use in session depend entirely on the client's needs. I like to think of myself as a guide on the journey to healing, and the client is the person driving the boat. I enjoy helping clients formulate their own goals and helping them reach those goals in a way that is conducive for long term change/healing and fits the client's life the way they see best. I would be able to help clients not only find their individual voices, but teach them skills on how to use them to help them live the life they want to live.

Kendra has been so helpful! Although I came to her with a specific event that I wanted to work through, she has helped me with many different topics/areas I was struggling with, and does it all in a friendly relatable way.

Kendra has been phenomenal. I came to her at a particularly trying time, and she did a great job of helping me sort out what I was looking for and how to go about achieving it. She's smart, empathetic, and a general delight to work with.

Heartfelt, real, gives it to you straighter than you asked for.

Kendra is incredibly skilled and has a great way of balancing her great expertise as a therapist with a down-to-earth style. She is very direct and personable, and has done a great job of adapting her approach to what I need. I've had a handful of therapists over the years in each city I've lived in, and she's honestly the best!

I have enjoyed my sessions with Kendra. She has a pretty great knack at listening to my rambling (that I feel is nonsense) and pointing out how pieces of it relate to how I know myself and already have the tools to progress in my issues. I have rarely ever experienced someone who can decipher me, and its been unbelievably refreshing and helpful to talk to someone who just picks up on these things. Not only that, but seems to pull out of my mind things that were on my mind, but I hadn't directly brought up. I am excited to see how I can progress with her guidance, as at each step she has an actionable step for me to take.
