About Kendrick

Kendrick Burden is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with eight years of experience delivering mental health support in North Carolina. He approaches therapy with warmth and empathy, creating a space where clients can speak openly and explore how their inner self-talk shapes emotional responses.

Background and approach

Kendrick emphasizes client-centered work, helping people recognize their strengths and develop practical tools to manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and ADHD among other concerns. He blends cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices with trauma-informed interventions to address complex reactions to life events, including issues related to attachment, caregiving, chronic illness, and relationship struggles.

Kendrick frames therapy as a collaborative process focused on ownership and action, guiding clients to clarify goals and practice strategies that fit their daily lives. His background includes a broad range of clinical topics such as intimacy-related challenges, anger, career difficulties, and coping with major life changes, all approached with an emphasis on respect and practical problem solving.

How Kendrick’s Approaches Translate to Online Care



Kendrick commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT focuses on helping clients notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values to guide action, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. CBT targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, teaching practical skills for managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and difficulty with focus and motivation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kendrick works with clients to explore which methods fit their needs and goals, adjusting techniques over time based on what proves most helpful for daily life and long-term progress.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options let clients engage from home or other convenient locations, fit sessions around work or caregiving responsibilities, and use shorter check-ins or longer conversations depending on what supports progress. The variety of formats makes it easier to sustain consistent work toward therapeutic goals while balancing day-to-day demands.
