More about Kevin

  • 5 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

Therapy can be a powerful and life-changing tool. Many clients come to me seeking guidance or direction in their lives, needing support navigating interpersonal relationships, career goals, and existential life questions. Three words that I use to describe my style of therapy are: practical, challenging, and affirming. I like to bring practicality and flexibility to my therapeutic practice: tailoring each therapy plan to the needs of the client. I challenge the thought processes and personality constructs that have caused conflict or disorder in our lives. Most importantly, I validate and affirm my clients by showing unconditional positive regard.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
