About Kendee

Kendee Hamilton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Utah with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, family concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression. Kendee lists phobias, post-traumatic stress, and process addictions among her focused areas.

Kendee describes the brain as an important part of healing and uses practical tools to help people change unhelpful patterns. Sessions emphasize identifying beliefs that get in the way of daily functioning and then practicing ways to respond differently. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what can be tried between sessions.

Her work addresses how attachment, communication, and family of origin issues shape current relationships. She also helps people who struggle with body image, codependency, commitment worries, guilt, and shame. Addiction concerns she notes include drug and alcohol use and process issues such as gambling or problematic pornography use.

People who feel isolated or stuck are offered steps to reduce avoidance and increase manageable engagement with social situations. Kendee explains techniques clearly and helps clients practice new skills in real life. Progress is described in terms of concrete changes in behavior and day-to-day coping.

To begin, Kendee asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location. Sessions are conducted in English and Kendee does not accept international clients.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques Kendee uses focus on changing patterns and processing troubling experiences. One common approach is working to identify and shift unhelpful beliefs and behaviors; that involves short exercises, role practice, and homework designed to help with anxiety, avoidance, and relationship problems. Another approach addresses trauma by helping people access memories and the beliefs tied to them, then practicing responses that reduce reactivity in daily life; this is useful for post-traumatic stress and deep-seated shame.

Choosing the best approach is collaborative. Kendee will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and preferences and then try methods that seem likely to help. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods when something isn’t working, so clients and therapist pick what fits together over time.

If you’re considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking since none were specified in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce the need to travel. Many people find it simpler to practice skills between sessions when meetings can be scheduled from wherever they are, and therapists can use video or phone options when those formats are supported.
