About Kendrick
Kendrick Burden is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with eight years of post-licensure experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns, relationship and family issues, and ADHD. Kendrick also supports people dealing with addiction, depression, anger, and life transitions.
He uses straightforward, conversational sessions that focus on practical steps. Conversations aim to clarify how someone talks to themselves about what happened. That helps shift responses to stress, loss, and conflict. Sessions draw on cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness practices to change patterns of thinking and behavior.
Kendrick also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help clients identify values and small actions that fit those values. For clients who have experienced trauma, he includes EMDR-informed methods alongside other trauma-focused techniques. The work is collaborative and goal-oriented, with emphasis on skills that can be used between sessions.
People often come for help with blended family issues such as merging households, step-parenting strain, or co-parenting tensions. Kendrick talks through communication strategies, boundary-setting, and managing loyalty conflicts without taking sides. He also addresses caregiver stress, chronic illness impacts, and grief that comes with major life changes.
His practice language is English and his listed credential is NC LCSW. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and steps for scheduling.
How Kendrick uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a client and taking small, committed actions aligned with those values. It can help with decisions, motivation, and coping during household changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and habits and replaces them with manageable skills for stress, anxiety, and relationship interactions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-informed approach used to process distressing memories and reduce their impact on daily life.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Kendrick will discuss options, try methods, and check in about what helps. The plan can change based on a client's goals, preferences, and response to different techniques.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what's offered. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work or caregiving schedules and useful for shorter check-ins or regular weekly meetings. Online work also makes it simpler to keep continuity after a move or when life gets busy. Kendrick aims to use methods that fit into everyday life while focusing on practical skills that can be practiced between meetings.
