I welcome all clients.

Hi, I am Dr. Kendra. I tend to use an eclectic approach. Listen to my patients, stay where my patients are at and work together for the best treatment approaches. I believe we need to work together, develop goals, but accountability is needed as well in order to move forward in treatment.
