Kendra Young, LPC

Kendra Young is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama with 12 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She works with individuals and families facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting difficulties, career transitions, trauma and abuse, grief, sleeping problems, and issues related to self-esteem and identity. She also offers support for ADHD, anger, codependency, attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family dynamics, and other family problems.

Her approach blends practical, evidence-informed methods with a warm and interactive counseling style. Kendra uses cognitive behavioral techniques alongside skills-based strategies such as dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness practices, and incorporates motivational and solution-focused elements when helpful. She frames therapy as a collaborative process, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person or family rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

Kendra brings experience as both a counselor and life coach, guiding clients through recovery from substance use and domestic violence, healing from physical or emotional trauma, and navigating major life changes. She emphasizes respect, empathy, and clear communication, and focuses on helping clients build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward more fulfilling daily life. Kendra aims to empower people to step into their strengths and make meaningful, sustainable change.
