About

Hi, I’m VaKendall. Do you have a child who struggles to focus in school or faces difficulties at home? Are you in need of help finding the right support for your child? Well you have come to the right place. I aim to help young individuals, specifically children, and teenagers, to tackle the underlying causes of their challenges. My specialization is in helping those who are struggling with depression, anxiety, behavioral challenges, anger management issues, and trauma. Helping people from all walks of life navigate life's challenges brings me great satisfaction. If your child is going through a difficult time and is struggling with anxiety, depression, or any other challenge, I am here to offer my assistance. Please know that I am available to help in any way that I can, and I am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for your child to express their feelings and work through their challenges. My priority is to be a helpful and reliable resource for your family during this time, and I am dedicated to doing everything in my power to support your child's well-being. Seeking therapy is a smart and courageous choice. You or your child needs to have a safe space to heal and thrive. Throughout our sessions, I will deliver exceptional care and highly effective techniques that will empower you or your child to conquer any obstacles and embark on a new journey with confidence. We should collaborate!
