Jonathan KirkendallLicensed Professional Counselor, LPC

About

My ideal clients are adults navigating the complex emotional terrain of chronic illness and health challenges. They often struggle with anxiety, depression, grief over lost capabilities, and difficulties adjusting to a new normal. Many feel isolated or misunderstood by those who haven't experienced chronic health issues. They seek a space to process their experiences, develop coping strategies, and find meaning despite physical limitations. Their goals typically include reducing distress, improving relationships strained by illness, advocating effectively for their needs, and reclaiming agency in their lives. Drawing from personal experience with autoimmune disease and hearing loss, I offer specialized support for those navigating chronic health challenges. Having navigated significant life disruptions myself—from war zones to health challenges - I provide empathetic guidance for transforming limitation into meaningful adaptation.
