Kendra Penski, LCSW

I don’t believe you’re meant to just get through life. I believe you’re meant to actually live it. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or like you’re just going through the motions, you’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it out on your own. Let’s work together to help you reconnect with yourself and start living with more intention, clarity, and purpose. I’ve been providing therapy to individuals and couples for over 15 years, and I’m trained in multiple evidence-based approaches. My work is rooted in an empathic, non-judgmental, and authentic style, with space for humor when it helps you feel more at ease. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. It can feel real, supportive, and even a little lighter along the way. I’m especially passionate about working with military members, Veterans, and their families. As a military spouse myself, now navigating life with a partner in the reserves, and having worked for the VA for nearly 10 years, I understand the unique stressors, transitions, and resilience that come with this lifestyle. I also bring my experience as a mom of three young children, including one with type 1 diabetes, which has deepened my understanding of stress, flexibility, and what it really takes to keep showing up when life feels like a lot. You’ve already taken a meaningful step by being here. If you’re ready to stop just managing life and start feeling more connected, more grounded, and more like yourself, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in that process.
