About Kenneth
Kenneth Roy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arkansas with 17 years of experience. He has worked in outpatient and inpatient settings and has focused much of his career on children and adolescents living with depression, anxiety, trauma, and attention difficulties. Kenneth describes his work as interactive and engaging, and he adapts his approach to the situation in front of him.
He helps people who are dealing with stress, anger, relationship strain, grief, and low self-esteem. He also supports those navigating parenting challenges and intimacy-related concerns. His practice includes work with LGBT clients and people coping with trauma and abuse.
Kenneth’s main approaches include cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and solution-focused work. In sessions he will use these methods to identify patterns, teach practical skills, and set short-term goals people can try between meetings. He emphasizes concrete steps rather than long lectures.
When someone is feeling overwhelmed or snapping at people they care about, Kenneth aims to slow things down and find manageable practices. He blends skill building with problem-solving so clients leave sessions with clear next steps. The focus is on what a person can do differently in day-to-day life.
People who prefer direct, hands-on sessions that aim at notice-able changes may find his style fits well. Before a first meeting he asks people to describe their main concerns so sessions can begin with a clear, practical plan.
How sessions work
How Kenneth Uses CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Work Online
Kenneth commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT often focuses on clear exercises and tasks that someone can try between sessions to reduce stress and anger.He also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better ways to respond in tense moments. DBT-style techniques can be useful when frustration builds quickly or when someone wants concrete tools to calm down.
Solution-focused work in his practice zeroes in on short-term goals and practical next steps. This approach is about identifying what a person wants to change now and building small, achievable plans toward that result.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single approach.
