About Kendall
Kendall Altheimer is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and low self-esteem. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Kendall centers each conversation on what the person brings and the strengths they already have.
She has eight years of professional experience and holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential (LCSW). Kendall has worked with people facing mood disorders, bipolar disorder, and trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with sleeping problems, compassion fatigue, and life transitions such as pregnancy, postpartum concerns, and end-of-life caregiving. In sessions she listens first, then helps people figure out realistic next steps. That can mean practicing new ways to cope with anxiety, learning how to manage anger, or breaking larger problems into tasks that feel doable.
Kendall aims to empower people to take small, steady steps toward change. Her background includes helping first responders and caregivers cope with stress, and addressing isolation, career concerns, and relationship communication problems. She values a collaborative process where goals are practical and measurable.
Kendall offers therapy in California and holds licenses in California and Texas. Conversations are conducted in English and shaped around each person’s day-to-day life and needs.

How evidence-based techniques are used online
Two common evidence-based approaches Kendall draws on are goal-focused coping strategies and skills training. Goal-focused coping involves setting small, concrete steps to reduce stress and build confidence, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger. Skills training teaches practical tools for managing intense emotions, improving sleep routines, and handling difficult conversations.Therapeutic work is collaborative. The therapist and client will explore which approaches feel most helpful and adapt methods to match each person’s goals and daily life. Kendall will help guide that process so clients can try techniques and adjust as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people work face-to-face when that helps, phone calls use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break, live chat can speed up short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
