About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience working in helping professions. I have a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy. I’ve had an opportunity to work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder and psychotic disorders to name a few.

Generally speaking, my theoretical approach will be Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. This doesn’t mean I don’t incorporate other therapeutic approaches. You’re an individual therefore I don’t attempt to force a particular framework.

I am an active listener who enjoys supporting clients with self-discovery and development of personal goals. It’s amazing how beneficial it can be to speak with someone unbiased, nonjudgmental and eager to be supportive. I enjoy being a part of a process where people learn, grow and develop based on their standards and ideas of success. You know your life better than anyone else. Sometimes as humans, we need assistance in realizing this. I look forward to being a part of that process if given the opportunity.

Take care in the meantime.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kenya Amos. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

I’ve only had a couple sessions now with Kenya but I really appreciate how well she listens, addresses my points without taking space away from me, and how she’s given me worksheets to complete or to educate me with.

Great listener, always contributes a fresh perspective.

We worked with Kenya both together as a couple and separately for almost one year. We've tackled many difficult issues that have challenged us for most of our 20 year marriage. We're communicating better, working together in our finances, and each addressing our own anxiety by developing better coping mechanisms. Kenya was incredibly insightful and helpful. We loved working with her!

I’ve had 4 therapy sessions with Kenya and my experience has been great. I’ve been experiencing stress and anxiety this year balancing my personal life, work and my relationship. She has given me tools to manage everything and how to stay calm under stress. I will highly recommend Kenya to those who are looking for a therapist who listens and gives practical advice. Thank you Kenya!
