Kenushca Hendrix, LMHC

Kenushca Hendrix is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of experience helping people work through complex emotional and life challenges. She focuses on empowering individuals to build resilience, practice self-compassion, and find practical pathways forward when facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, and major life transitions such as post-incarceration reentry or relationship shifts. Her practice also attends to concerns like abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, workplace stress, and the stresses of blended family dynamics.

Her work is rooted in a person-centered, holistic framework that prioritizes each person’s unique background and goals. Drawing on evidence-based therapeutic techniques, she supports clients in strengthening communication, deepening social connections, and developing sustainable coping strategies. She places emphasis on cultural sensitivity and on honoring multigenerational and multicultural experiences as part of the healing process.

Kenushca is committed to practical access and flexibility, offering late night and weekend hours as well as brief check-in appointments to fit therapy into busy lives. She creates a collaborative space where people can explore emotions, process past experiences, and move toward greater emotional balance and purposeful living.

Evidence-based approaches for online healing and change

Kenushca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques delivered in a compassionate, person-centered way. One approach focuses on trauma-informed care, helping people safely process painful memories and reduce the ways trauma affects daily life. Another emphasis is on skills-based work for stress, anxiety, and depression - teaching practical coping tools, emotion regulation strategies, and ways to rebuild routine and motivation. She also employs exploratory, relational work that examines attachment patterns, communication, and life transitions to improve interpersonal functioning and self-understanding.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kenushca collaborates with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adjusting techniques over time so treatment aligns with changing needs and real-world outcomes.

Online therapy sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow scheduling outside standard business hours, make brief check-ins possible between full sessions, and help people fit consistent support into busy lives while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to individual circumstances.
