About Kenneth
Kenneth Rigsby is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - practicing in Florida with 22 years of experience. He focuses on helping people who are dealing with depression, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, anger, and questions around sexual identity and belonging.
He works directly with LGBTQ+ individuals on issues of self-acceptance, communication, and emotion regulation. He also helps people who are carrying guilt or shame and those trying to rebuild self-respect and self-love after painful experiences. Sessions are practical and focused on real-life changes.
His style is client-centered and respectful. Kenneth aims to create a steady, nonjudgmental setting where someone can talk through what is happening now and what they want to change. He listens for patterns that keep causing pain and helps people make straightforward plans to try differently.
Expect conversations about relationships and everyday choices as much as feelings. Kenneth uses techniques drawn from evidence-based practice to address trauma, mood, and interpersonal skills. He guides people in small, doable steps that fit work, family, and other daily demands.
People who come to him often want practical strategies for clearer communication, stronger boundaries, and easing persistent guilt or shame. He supports those aims over time, adjusting the approach to what is actually working for each person.
Before booking, confirm session formats and scheduling options so the practical details match your needs.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Two evidence-based approaches Kenneth commonly draws on are trauma-focused techniques and interpersonal skills work. Trauma-focused methods help people process painful memories and reduce their emotional pull, which can lessen intrusive memories and high reactivity. Interpersonal skills work focuses on clear communication, boundary setting, and repairing relationship patterns that cause repeated conflict.He also uses mood-focused strategies that address depressive symptoms by breaking problems into manageable tasks and testing small behavioral changes. These techniques aim to change daily routines and thinking patterns that keep someone feeling stuck.
Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. Kenneth will discuss goals, preferences, and practical constraints with each person and adapt methods together. That collaborative decision-making helps keep sessions relevant to your life and responsibilities.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking.
