About

Kenneth Breniman is a California-licensed clinical social worker (CA LCSW 22958) with 19 years of clinical experience. He supports people dealing with stress and anxiety, LGBTQ+ related concerns, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and issues around self-esteem.

He aims to create an open, safe space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step toward therapy can require courage, and he seeks to co-create a brave environment to support clients along their life journeys.

Kenneth approaches care from a perspective that sees body, mind, and spirit as interconnected. While he respects diagnostic frameworks such as the DSM, he views diagnoses as potentially limiting for those pursuing deeper spiritual or existential work. His goal is to help clients understand how past experiences may contribute to current suffering and to provide room to heal and move forward.

As a lifelong learner, Kenneth has spent the last two decades exploring the intersection of psychology, yoga, sound healing, death studies, and psychedelic integration. He often integrates some or all of these modalities into sessions, depending on a client’s needs. He has been a licensed clinical social worker since 2005.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether online therapy can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions. One major benefit is flexibility - people can connect in the way that feels most comfortable, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients may switch therapists at any time if they want a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical, effective option for addressing everyday mental health needs and life transitions.
