Getting to know Jennifer Kendrick

Whether you've recently experienced the loss of a job, a relationship, a family member, or a long-held plan, navigating grief is a journey that you don't have to take alone. I specialize in working with individuals and couples who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, and infertility, helping them bond together during difficult times. My approach I use a client-centered perspective, which means that I adapt my approach to focus on your goals and objectives. I may assign homework, including worksheets, videos, podcasts, and journaling reflections, to help you clarify your goals and objectives. While there is space in the therapy room for religious and/or spiritual practices, I want to emphasize that I am not a "Christian counselor" or faith-based therapist. I have specialized training in working with people who have experienced religious trauma, and I will not bring religion into the therapeutic process as a matter of ethical principles. My focus I approach therapy with deep empathy and a commitment to creating a safe, non-judgmental space. Loss experiences are profoundly personal and often isolating, so I prioritize building trust right from the beginning. I recognize that each person's grief is unique, and I take the time to understand their specific emotional landscape, whether it's loss, guilt, anger, sadness, or a sense of hopelessness. I believe in the importance of validating their feelings and allowing space for the full range of emotions that often accompany such losses. It's essential that clients know their experiences are not only valid, but also not something they need to "move on" from too quickly. My goal is to meet them where they are in their healing journey, without pushing them to reach any particular stage or timeline. I also emphasize the importance of self-compassion and working through guilt or shame, which often accompany feelings of inadequacy in the face of infertility or pregnancy loss.
