Kendra Holliday, Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MA, LSW

 

Getting to the other side of struggles with self-confidence, finding your voice and shifting your mindset takes a desire for change. Wanting to be your authentic self, with no apologies requires a level of commitment to discovery of your past and pushing into your future with no regrets. In order to conquer these goals, you must answer your why to give meaning to your now.

My area of expertise is working with youth & young adults that recognize more support & clarity is needed. They desire more and are willing to put in the work to achieve goals. I offer the opportunity to connect, discover and conquer your challenges. I offer the opportunity to make the next steps toward the future you envision for yourself.

I believe it is necessary to build & develop partnerships directed at achieving one's full potential. This journey requires discovering your voice, overcoming complacency & obstacles as well as showing up as your authentic self! I want to partner with you through the transitions of life and help you to manifest your truth.
