About Kendra
Kendra Stenack is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship strain, parenting stress, and life changes. Her tone is encouraging and practical, and she invites clients to take a first step toward feeling steadier.
Kendra believes people are the experts on their own lives. She uses that idea to help clients tell and reshape the stories that shape their feelings.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on identifying strengths, naming patterns, and finding clearer ways to move forward. Her work draws on Narrative therapy to look at personal stories, Attachment-based ideas to understand relationship patterns, and Client-centered methods that keep the person and their goals central. Cognitive Behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices are also used to help manage symptoms like anxiety or low mood.
With 18 years of professional experience, Kendra has worked across a range of concerns including compassion fatigue, caregiving stress, end-of-life and hospice issues, adoption and foster care challenges, and post-traumatic stress. She also supports people facing cancer, divorce, blended family issues, and midlife transitions. Kendra speaks English and works with adults who want a collaborative, respectful approach.
She recognizes how powerful grief, loss, and caregiving can be, and she aims to create steady, practical steps for people during hard seasons. To start, she asks clients to share their story and goals, then she helps them build small changes that lead to clearer thinking and more choice in day-to-day life.

Online session options
How narrative and attachment approaches work online
Therapy with Kendra often draws on Narrative therapy, which helps people tell and rethink the stories that shape their feelings and choices. This approach works well for grief, life transitions, and patterns that repeat across relationships. Attachment-based ideas focus on how early and current relationships affect emotion and behavior, helping people understand why they react the way they do and try new ways of relating.Client-centered methods keep the conversation focused on the person's goals and experience. Sessions aim to be collaborative - the therapist and client decide together which approaches to use and adjust them as needs change. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work, and Kendra helps clients test what feels most useful for their situation.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face when that helps build connection. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins, brief coping skills practice, or times when a shorter contact fits a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and everyday life.
