About
Mental health to me is personal, and I believe no one should have to navigate it alone. Having experienced my own seasons of stress, anxiety, and life’s challenges, I understand how overwhelming it can feel to ask for help. Those experiences have shaped me into a provider who leads with compassion, empathy, and understanding. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. I believe you are the expert on your own life, I am here to help you navigate through any difficult time you may be having!
Hi, I'm Kendra, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 18 years of nursing experience, including more than 8 years dedicated to psychiatric and behavioral health care. Throughout my career, I've worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds across a variety of clinical settings. I have experience treating most mental health diagnoses such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, psychosis, and other behavioral challenges. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about the next step in their mental health journey.
My goal is to help you gain clarity, develop practical coping strategies, and find a treatment plan that fits your needs and goals. Whether that includes medication management, education, or therapy, I believe in working together as partners. I strive to create a safe, judgment-free environment where you feel heard and empowered in your care.
Healing looks different for everyone, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you as you move toward greater balance, resilience, and wellness.

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.
In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Cornelius therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.
Thriveworks OCD counseling in Cornelius, NC is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
