RiverBend Counseling Adds LPC-Associate Kenzi Gray to Support Teens, Young Adults

RiverBend Counseling, a longstanding mental health practice in New Braunfels, Texas, has bolstered its clinical team with the addition of Kenzi Gray, an LPC-Associate. Gray will focus on supporting teens, young adults, and adults navigating various life challenges.

Gray began her role with RiverBend Counseling on September 1, 2026. She works both in person at the practice’s office on North Walnut Avenue and online, providing services to clients across Texas. Her practice encompasses a range of issues, including anxiety, self-esteem, identity exploration, and major life transitions. Gray has a particular emphasis on serving LGBTQ+ individuals as they navigate relationships, belonging, and the challenges of being understood.

A key aspect of Gray’s approach is addressing the unique concerns of young adulthood. She works closely with clients dealing with the uncertainties of college, graduation, and early independence. Gray’s therapeutic methods draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness-based practices.

Jay Jeter, LPC-S, the owner of RiverBend Counseling, highlighted Gray’s impact on the practice: "A lot of young people we work with are worried they will be judged for who they are. Kenzi takes that off the table on day one. She listens, she doesn't rush anybody, and that is what keeps people coming back."

Under the supervision of Jeter, Gray is now accepting new clients in person in New Braunfels and through telehealth services statewide. RiverBend Counseling has a long history of serving the community, having provided mental health support for over 25 years. The practice’s clinicians offer care to individuals, couples, and families across a wide array of concerns, including anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, grief, anger, and relationship strain. They are committed to offering LGBTQ+ affirming care.

For those seeking support, RiverBend Counseling can be reached by phone or through their website. Private pay appointments are often available the same day, and insurance benefits are typically verified within 24 business hours.
