He helps people who are dealing with trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low self-esteem, career questions, and major life changes. He also lists life purpose among his focus areas and works with related concerns such as workplace issues and midlife transitions.
He approaches sessions as a straightforward conversation about what is happening now. Kendon encourages people to say what feels hardest to bring up. He listens for patterns that get in the way of decisions about work, relationships, or next steps in life. Sessions typically include practical ways to cope with distress and steps to try between meetings.
Kendon has experience supporting people through adoption and foster care topics, caregiver stress, fertility and fatherhood issues, and end-of-life concerns. He also works with people facing isolation after a big change or a disaster. He describes these areas as part of the range of problems he has helped over five years of practice.
People who choose him can expect a calm, direct approach aimed at clarifying options and managing strong feelings. He invites clients to experiment with small changes and to discuss what does and does not help. He asks questions that connect present struggles to practical next steps.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The subscription for ongoing sessions can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location.
How Kendon applies evidence-based techniques online
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and building skills to manage strong emotions. Cognitive approaches help people notice and adjust thought patterns that reduce confidence or stall decision making, which can be useful for career and life-purpose concerns. Skills-based methods teach practical ways to handle anxiety, grief, or stress from caregiving and workplace pressure.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kendon will collaborate with each person to identify which techniques feel most useful based on goals, current problems, and personal preference. That means trying methods, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than prescribing a single path up front.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand them. They can also help people keep continuity of care during transitions such as job changes or relocation. Ask about specific session formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so you know what to expect.
