About Kenzie Bolden

Kenzie Bolden | MS, LMHC

LICENSED MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELOR 

Counseling for Adults (18+)

Kenzie brings warmth and creativity to the counseling experience. She respects that it can take time to build the trust necessary to open up in therapy, and she brings patience and compassion to that process. Kenzie favors a collaborative approach to counseling, in which client and therapist combine personal and professional expertise to arrive at nuanced, personalized solutions.

Kenzie primarily draws from Acceptance Commitment Therapy and incorporates various strategies for mindfulness and emotional regulation. Kenzie provides a nonjudgmental space for clients to learn coping skills to manage distress, as well as practice emotional vulnerability. In this space, she invites clients to stay connected to their values and create a life that is meaningful to them, even in the presence of pain or uncertainty. She uses a Health At Every Size (HAES) lens, which means she holds respect, acceptance, and affirmation for people of all body sizes. Her approach often includes mindfulness, humor, creativity, and self-compassion as tools for growth.

Kenzie loves working with college students, people experiencing life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. She enjoys supporting people in identity exploration, self-worth and shame work, relational conflicts, as well as healing from difficult past relationships.

Kenzie is originally from the Pacific Northwest and enjoys going to concerts, playing pickleball, watching TV shows, and thrifting. She has a pit bull named Ron who makes her laugh every day. She is a novice birder and is passionate about making playlists for every occasion.
