Dr. Kendra Stuke, LSCSW

Dr. Kendra Stuke is a Kansas-licensed clinical social worker (LSCSW) with 26 years of professional experience. She supports adults and younger clients facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and anger. She also works with people handling trauma and abuse, ADHD, and intimacy-related or attachment challenges.

Her work has included children, youth, teens, and young adults as well as adults moving through life transitions. She uses a mix of straightforward conversation, practical tools, and reflective listening. Sessions focus on clear goals such as reducing reactivity, improving communication, or managing anxiety symptoms in day-to-day life.

Dr. Stuke draws on approaches that include attachment-based ideas, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and narrative work. That blend lets her address emotional patterns as they show up in relationships, parenting, and self-regulation. She explains concepts plainly and practices skills together with each person in session.

When trauma or childhood wounds are present, she brings developmentally appropriate methods to help people tell their story and regain a sense of control. For younger clients she incorporates play-based strategies to help express feelings that may be hard to say in words.

People who come for help learn specific ways to notice triggers, choose a different response, and rebuild trust in relationships. Sessions are focused and practical, with attention to what can be used between meetings to make small changes that add up.
