About Kenya

Kenya Amos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who centers her work on practical strategies people can use in daily life. She draws on nine years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and grief. Kenya writes plainly and listens closely so clients leave sessions with clear next steps.

Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy.

Background and approach

She uses these methods to help people notice unhelpful patterns, learn new coping skills, and set small goals that add up. Sessions are collaborative and focused on what the person wants to change first. Kenya also brings in psychodynamic ideas and client-centered listening when they fit the work.

That allows space to look at past patterns that keep showing up now. She balances learning new behaviors with understanding old ones so progress feels steady and sustainable. Areas she commonly addresses include trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, relationship and family issues, caregiving stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and career or life transitions.

She also helps with abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and issues around trust and forgiveness. Kenya practices in Oregon and offers sessions in English. She works with adults who want focused, practical therapy to manage emotions and regain control over daily life.

Approach-driven online therapy for emotion regulation and growth

Kenya often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and learn concrete emotion-regulation skills. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting negative thought patterns to reduce anxiety and depression, while DBT gives step-by-step tools for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy in session work to set clear, achievable goals and build on small successes. Together these approaches let clients use skills right away while also clarifying longer-term aims. Kenya will work collaboratively to decide which approaches fit a person's needs and preferences, and she adapts methods as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make work with a therapist flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation and skill coaching, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports focused check-ins, and messaging is useful for ongoing prompts or brief updates between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain continuity during life transitions.
