About Brenda

Dr. Brenda Kemp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 16 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical help for everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and ADHD.

Her tone is warm and straightforward, and she aims to make therapy feel understandable and manageable. Her practice centers on meeting people where they are and building on strengths that already exist. Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-oriented.

Background and approach

Clients can expect a supportive presence that listens and helps identify steps to try between meetings. Dr. Kemp draws from several approaches to fit the person and the problem.

She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas help people clarify values and commit to small, workable changes. Emotionally-Focused and narrative work help with relationship patterns and the stories people tell about themselves.

She has worked across a wide range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including trauma and abuse, addiction, caregiver stress, end-of-life and hospice-related worries, adoption and foster care issues, and compassion fatigue. This breadth means she can usually help people untangle overlapping problems that affect daily life. Therapy is offered in multiple online formats to fit different needs.

Dr. Kemp encourages collaborative planning so each person gets an approach that matches their goals and routines.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, life changes, and situations like managing ADHD when focus and priorities feel scattered.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests practical changes to see what works. It can help with mood, worry, habits, and skills for day-to-day coping.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotional patterns in close relationships and how to shift them toward healthier connection. It is helpful when people want clearer communication and stronger emotional bonds.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can support brief updates, coping tools between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options let people fit care into busy lives and try different formats to see what helps most.
