About Kendra

Kendra Theroith is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist with 13 years of clinical experience guiding people through stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions.

Background and approach

As an LMFT she draws on practical, person-centered methods to help clients build motivation, confidence, and coping strategies tailored to their circumstances. Her work also includes support around relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, career questions, bipolar mood management, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

She is known for a down-to-earth style that emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Kendra adapts conversations and treatment plans to each individual's needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, and she presents therapy as a collaborative journey that starts with a brave first step.

Her experience includes working with teenagers and people in the LGBTQ community, and she prioritizes creating an environment where clients feel understood and supported as they pursue clearer goals and improved everyday functioning.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Access



Kendra draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that prioritize practical skills and collaborative problem solving. One approach focuses on building coping strategies and emotional regulation to manage stress, anxiety, and mood fluctuations; this involves identifying patterns, teaching concrete tools, and practicing skills that support day-to-day functioning. Another approach centers on strengthening self-esteem and motivation through goal setting, behavioral experiments, and supportive coaching techniques that help clients notice progress and adjust plans when needed.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kendra works together with each client to determine what fits best based on their goals, preferences, and life context. She adapts methods over time and encourages an active partnership so clients can evaluate which techniques feel most helpful.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain consistent sessions, access support from home, and integrate therapeutic work into everyday life while collaborating with a licensed professional who helps tailor the process to individual needs.
