About Kendrick
Kendrick Burden is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people work through stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and parenting concerns. Kendrick uses a straightforward, client-centered style that aims to make starting therapy easier for worried parents and individuals.
He describes therapy as a place to talk through what is happening and how one talks to oneself about those events. Sessions are practical and collaborative.
Background and approach
Kendrick draws on cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Kendrick also offers approaches used for trauma processing and recovery. When trauma is a focus, he integrates methods intended to reduce the hold painful memories can have on daily life.
He balances these with coaching-style conversations when clients want clear, actionable steps. Many people come for help with relationships, family stress, parenting challenges, or changes in work or health. Kendrick works with issues such as addiction, anger, low self-esteem, and coping with big life transitions.
He also addresses attachment, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and communication problems. Sessions are direct and empathetic. Kendrick helps people identify strengths and small changes they can try between meetings.
The aim is to help clients feel more able to manage everyday demands and to make clearer choices about their next steps.

How his approaches translate to online care
Kendrick commonly combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy when working with parents and individuals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing different behaviors to change how someone feels. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building on a person's own goals and strengths so they lead the pace and topics.He also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice stress and reactivity in the moment and choose different responses. These approaches can be applied online through conversation, guided exercises, and short practice assignments between sessions. Kendrick treats finding the best approach as a collaborative process and will work with each person to decide whether CBT, client-centered methods, mindfulness, or a blend fits their needs and goals.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy parents and people juggling work or health demands. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or to fit a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or get shorter, focused support without a full session commitment.
