Meet Kennedy
Professionally:
Hi! I am Kennedy Pagliari, a licensed clinical social worker based in North Carolina. I have a Bachelor's in Psychology from Sonoma State University (2017) and a Graduate Degree in Social Work from Simmons University (2020). My diverse experience in mental health includes working with individuals of all ages across different settings such as crisis residential facilities for adults and school-based mental health services for children and teenagers. My passion lies in supporting teens and young adults as they navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationships, family dynamics, and personal identity development. I am here to guide you on your journey towards personal growth and well-being. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to the next best you!
A little bit more about me:
I spent much of my childhood and part of my early adulthood basking in the sunshine of Northern California before making the bold decision to uproot my life and relocate to Raleigh, NC in 2020. Intrigued by the allure of the southern lifestyle, I was drawn to North Carolina's diverse landscapes, from the stunning beaches and serene lakes to the majestic mountains and lush greenery. Venturing into the unknown, I embraced Raleigh as my new home, immersing myself in its vibrant community. Outside of work, I cherish moments with my partner and our two beloved dogs, Whiskey, a lively Chihuahua mix, and Layla, a loyal German Shepherd. Nature holds a special place in my heart, bringing me solace and joy whether I'm by the water, camping under the stars, or simply exploring the great outdoors. Fueling my passion for creativity, I indulge in various DIY projects and thrifting during my leisure time.
