About June

June Keniston, LCPC, brings a calm, person-centered approach to therapy. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and helps people navigate stressful life changes, grief, mood shifts, and problems like anxiety, depression, or issues with money and finances. She draws on straightforward, strengths-based work to help people identify what keeps them stuck and build practical steps forward.

June practices in Maine and has twelve years in the licensed counseling role reflected by her LCPC credential. Her work emphasizes listening first, then shaping a plan with clear, manageable goals. She often supports people dealing with chronic physical illness alongside mental health struggles, including conditions like chronic pain and fatigue.

Her approach blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and elements of dialectical behavior therapy. She also uses mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to help people change unhelpful patterns and build coping skills. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on everyday life challenges rather than on abstract theory.

June also addresses career stress, caregiver strain, aging and geriatric concerns, and relationship or family-origin issues. Her background includes supporting people through major transitions such as divorce, midlife rethinking, and coping after loss.

People who work with her can expect clear conversation, a plan aimed at small achievable changes, and support for both emotional needs and practical tasks. Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling details.

How June's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on wholehearted listening and helping the person set the agenda. It is useful for life transitions, grief, and feelings of emptiness by keeping attention on what matters most to the client. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors to find practical changes that reduce anxiety, depression, or mood swings. It often includes homework such as noticing thought patterns or practicing new behaviors. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with mood regulation, relationship stress, and impulsive behaviors.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. June will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, daily life, and what has or has not helped before. That choice can shift over time as needs change.

The therapist's biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult. They also let people use quieter surroundings, reduce screen time by choosing an audio call, or schedule brief sessions during a work break. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work effectively in remote sessions when needed.
