About Kenya
Kenya Amos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Oregon with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, parenting strains, relationship and family challenges, anger, self-esteem struggles, and career or life-change issues.
Her approach centers on clear, practical techniques. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy while also drawing on client-centered and psychodynamic ideas when helpful. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, and on identifying patterns that keep problems going.
Kenya listens without judgment and helps clients set concrete goals. She encourages people to name what matters to them and then build steps toward those aims. Conversations are straightforward and action-oriented, with attention to both feeling and behavior.
She also helps people who face compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, caregiving stress, communication problems, control issues, and issues tied to abandonment, adoption, or family of origin. Practical topics like forgiveness, managing jealousy, and coping after separation are part of her work.
Clients should expect a collaborative style that balances exploring past patterns with developing new day-to-day strategies. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Kenya commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes to reduce stress and mood problems. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal interactions.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small steps that lead toward measurable change. That approach is short-term and goal-oriented, useful when someone wants quick strategies for a specific problem such as anger at work or difficulties with relationships. Choosing the right mix of methods is collaborative; the therapist and client figure out what fits the client’s needs, goals, and preferences over the first few sessions.
The therapist’s biography does not list which online session formats she uses, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce the time spent traveling. Licensed professionals can adapt skills training, cognitive exercises, and behavioral planning to an online setting so clients can practice techniques between meetings.
