I do think Kensuke is a good guy, especially when it comes to supporting the 3rd village and Willie

I even think he handled Shinji’s PTSD the right way: at that time, giving Shinji space for some much needed self-reflection might be the best solution…

However, I do think Kensuke made a choice to sacrifice Shinji for the sake of the village and Wille

When Toji wished Shinji to stay with them, Kensuke acted as if he had something else in mind. He either stayed silent

…Or he told Shinji you should meet your father again—we all know he doesn’t mean they should sit down with Gendo and have a heart to heart talk over some coffee…

Touji told Shinji he has already done enough for everyone one and it’s time for him to stay behind

And Kensuke told Shinji Misato had been through a lot…

…Kensuke didn’t force Shinji to do anything, but all his actions were clearly oriented toward a single direction

I don’t mean to judge Kensuke’s character, but I want to point out he made a choice that Tōji would have rejected, if Tōji was the one in charge
