Today my guest is Kendra Higgs! Kendra is a highly sensitive person,  a Canadian Certified Counsellor with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) and a Licensed Counselling Therapy Candidate with the College of Counselling Therapists of New Brunswick (CCTNB). Kendra is committed to creating a safe space for clients to discover and explore the patterns and dynamics that get in the way of moving toward desired change. Kendra has specific training to work with couples as well as individuals with a broad range of concerns, including: anxiety, managing anger, difficult life transitions, spiritual/faith concerns, grief, loss, emotional overwhelm, stress, relational difficulties and self-worth. Kendra brings a passion for understanding her clients and a posture of curiosity and inquiry to her work. Among other things, she integrates an emotion & body focus to narrative therapy (NT), family systems theory, the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy and self-compassion in order to help clients understand the ways in which the difficulties that show up can start to tell a restrictive and unhelpful story about who they are. Kendra supports her clients to re-write that story to be one that is supportive and resourcing so they may find the freedom to be their most authentic selves. Kendra is always learning and in recent years has been exploring the areas of embodiment, adverse religious experiences and maternal mental health. She is celebrating 10 years with her husband this year, has a 2 year old daughter she is crazy about and another little one arriving in August.
