Cheryl Kenck

My communication style

I believe in clear, open, honest communication delivered with empathy and understanding.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into the vocation of being a therapist began in my early teenage years. I seemed to be the one people turned to for help. This continued throughout my life and as I saw people experiencing pain and heartache in their lives I began to feel this was my "calling." In the ensuing years it has been my privilege to continue on this journey.

My goals for you

I work collaboratively with clients in the initial sessions to help them define and refine their goals and then help them develop a treatment plan that is workable for them. I help them understand that therapy goals are fluid and dynamic and the treatment is one that is tailored to what is best suited for them and the problems we are addressing .

Our first session

During my first session it is important to me to help clients feel safe and comfortable. I do this by introducing myself and asking if they have any questions for me. I like to just ask them to tell me about themselves, as much or as little as they want. I want the conversation to focus on them to allow me to ask what brings them to therapy.
