About Kenya

Kenya Amos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Oregon. She brings nine years of counseling experience to sessions and focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and ADHD. Kenya aims to make therapy straightforward and useful for people feeling overwhelmed by life changes or difficult emotions.

She uses a mix of client-centered work and structured tools. Sessions often begin with listening and understanding what matters most to the client.

Background and approach

From there she offers clear strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral and solution-focused methods to manage emotions and solve specific problems. Kenya also uses elements of dialectical behavior and psychodynamic approaches when they fit a person's needs. That means she may help clients notice long-standing patterns, learn new emotion-regulation skills, and set realistic short-term goals.

She keeps the process flexible so it matches each person's pace and priorities. Her background includes work with people coping with trauma, relationship issues, parenting stress, caregiver strain, and compassion fatigue. She supports those dealing with control struggles, codependency, loneliness, and the emotional fallout of betrayal or separation.

In sessions Kenya focuses on active listening and practical steps. She encourages self-discovery and goal-setting so clients can try small changes between meetings. The aim is steady progress toward clearer routines, better coping, and more manageable daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Kenya draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy as core tools in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Solution-focused therapy centers on small, practical steps and clear goals so clients can see change quickly and build momentum.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kenya listens first to understand your priorities, then suggests methods that match your goals and preferences. She collaborates with clients to try options and adjust tactics when something is not working, so therapy stays useful and personalized.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling more flexible. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or brief problem-solving between talks. These options make it easier to keep momentum and adapt therapy to a busy life.
