Kendria P. Pierce, LPC/Practice Owner
My name is Kendria Pierce. I am a licensed professional counselor and certified EMDR therapist (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I've been in the mental health field for 16 years providing services in a variety of settings to include intensive in-home, inpatient psychiatric care and outpatient mental health. My specialty is working with individuals ages five and up with mood disorders (depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder etc.), grief/loss, trauma and ADHD. I also provide Christian counseling for those who would like to include this in their therapeutic work. In addition, I am an approved clinical supervisor for LPC candidates.
Beginning the therapy process can be scary for some but it is an important step in your healing process. The name of my practice is Reflections Counseling. It is based on Proverbs 27:19 " As water reflects the face, so one's life reflects the heart". What is your heart reflecting for you today?
