About Monna

Monna Kendrick is a Kentucky-licensed LPCC with 15 years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, straightforward approach for people dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes. Her style is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at helping a worried parent or an individual find clearer ways to cope.

She spent much of her career in inpatient settings, working on both acute and residential units. That work exposed her to a wide range of concerns, from panic and mood disorders to substance use and trauma. She has helped people with relationship and family struggles, parenting stress, self-image, and communication problems.

In sessions she focuses on listening, teaching, and steady support. She uses practices from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to spot unhelpful thinking and try new actions. Attachment-based ideas and client-centered care guide how she builds trust and follows each person’s pace.

Monna keeps explanations plain and skills-focused. Typical work includes learning emotional regulation, practicing clearer communication, and building routines that reduce overwhelm. Sessions often include short, practical exercises and at-home suggestions that are easy to try between meetings.

She works in English and has experience with a broad mix of people and life situations. People who want a practical, empathetic therapist for anger, coping skills, or mood concerns may find her straightforward approach supportive.

How therapeutic approaches work in online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and values. It helps people decide what matters and take small steps toward those goals despite difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean blending ACT, CBT, and mindfulness tools over time while tracking what helps most.

Confirm current session options before booking to learn which online formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or from different locations. Many people find they can practice skills in their daily routine and bring specific moments from home into discussion, making the work directly relevant to everyday life.
