Getting to know Kenisha King

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker who is passionate about supporting children, adults, and families as they navigate life’s challenges. I believe that everyone deserves a space where they feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and strength-based strategies.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use these tools to help individuals build practical coping skills, strengthen emotional wellbeing, and move through difficult moments with greater clarity and confidence. Every person’s story is unique, so I tailor our work to meet you exactly where you are. I’m here to offer steady guidance, compassion, and a collaborative partnership as you or your child work toward meaningful change.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

When you are ready to get started, schedule an initial assessment visit (intake) through Zocdoc. After you book an appointment, a care coordinator will reach out to review your method of payment and/or insurance number and answer any initial questions you may have before our first visit.
