More about Kyle

  • 20 years' experience

  • LPC

Feeling stuck? Maybe in a rut and not sure which way to turn? We all feel this way from time to time and sometimes we all need a little help to get back on the right track. I believe that we all have the innate ability to reach our highest potential, live life to the fullest, and be the happiest we can be. Let me help you discover your real you! I specialize in working with adults with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders and with people going through personal transitions of all kinds.

With a holistic background that is rooted in yoga and meditation traditions, I believe in treating the whole person. I typically use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and yoga based relaxation and stress reduction techniques in my practice.

I am an experienced yoga teacher and have been teaching yoga since 2003. Yoga has often been described as the world's oldest model of personal change. Integrating these ancient techniques with modern therapy approaches, I offer yoga based psychotherapy, stress reduction, and relaxation strategies.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Kyle was great to work with. I use the techniques he has taught me daily. He’s very personable and funny. I looked forward to our appointments and always finished my appointments feeling like I’ve made some form of progress. My schedule was crazy at times and he was cool with cancellations or reschedules.

Kyle is phenomenal and he's so easy to talk to. I find myself just ranting on and on sometimes and in my previous experience with therapy I would clam up a bit. Kyle is amazing and I really appreciate all he does for me!

Reviewed February 2022

Early morning answering these questions, so I hope I marked the survey correctly. I intended to give Kyle top marks in all areas. He has helped me a great deal through a difficult time of isolation and unemployment. Kyle listens to what I feel I need to talk about, but also gently guides me to and through areas I might be avoiding. It's been a great experience.
