About Kenya

Dr. Kenya King is a Florida Psychologist (FL Psychologist PY10101) with 15 years of clinical experience. She holds a doctorate and a master’s degree in clinical psychology and practices in Florida. Her work covers common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges.

King draws on a broad clinical background that includes community mental health, residential settings, private practice, and work within the Veterans Affairs medical system. She has run individual and group therapy and has experience with people across the age span and many life situations. Her training included mentors known for work in childhood anxiety and trauma-related disorders.

In sessions she uses evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people manage symptoms and build practical skills. She also integrates attachment-based thinking and emotion-focused tools when those perspectives fit a person’s concerns. Treatment emphasizes clear goals, skill practice, and attention to how relationships affect feelings and behavior.

Dr. King often helps with parenting strain, relationship stress, grief, addiction-related concerns, sleep and eating issues, and coping with medical conditions. She also works with issues around identity and sexual orientation, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and life transitions. Her approach is direct and collaborative, focusing on problem solving and real-world changes.

Her practice asks people to identify what they want to change and then sets steps to get there. Prospective clients are invited to review online therapy options and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online work and practical fit

Dr. King commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her clinical work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking committed steps toward them, while teaching ways to live alongside difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching concrete skills to change them, often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will review goals, symptoms, and preferences and pick methods that match those needs. That process is collaborative and may combine elements from attachment-based thinking or emotion-focused work when those perspectives help address relationship patterns or strong emotions.

The biography does not list specific online session formats. Confirm which formats are offered before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can attend between errands or work breaks. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skills practice to an online setting so sessions remain focused on measurable progress.
