Kenya Marion , LMSW

Kenya Marion is a licensed social worker with 26 years of experience in Michigan. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, and issues related to LGBT identity. She also supports those coping with grief, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, life transitions, and ADHD.

She creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult thoughts and feelings. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. The goal is clearer thinking, better coping, and small changes that add up over time.

Kenya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood concerns and addictive behaviors. She listens for patterns that keep problems cycling and works with clients to try different approaches until something fits. Progress is discussed in plain language so clients know what is working.

She also supports people dealing with family-related stress such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, blended family dynamics, and fatherhood concerns. Other areas Kenya helps with include body image, codependency, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and HIV/AIDS related challenges.

Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Kenya uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows therapist availability.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Kenya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on what helps in everyday life. One common approach she uses involves identifying unhelpful thinking and practicing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and depression. This helps people notice triggers and try small behavior changes that ease symptoms.

Another strand of her work targets patterns tied to addiction and impulsivity by building coping skills and safer routines. These methods emphasize concrete steps such as coping plans, relapse prevention strategies, and skills practice to handle cravings or intense urges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust plans based on what feels helpful. Clients are encouraged to share feedback so the work stays focused on their priorities.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video allows face-to-face conversation when that is helpful, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people send updates between sessions. These options offer flexibility for different schedules and needs.
