About Kevin
Kevin uses straightforward, practical conversations to help clients name their problems and set small goals. He focuses on self-love, forgiveness, and rebuilding after separation or divorce. Sessions include gentle but direct discussion of patterns such as codependency, jealousy, and anger, and move toward concrete steps a person can try between meetings.
Kevin blends several therapeutic approaches to match each person’s needs. He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, listening-based environment. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. When trauma is present, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing can be part of the plan to reduce distressing memories.
He places emphasis on practical skills like mindfulness and communication techniques from the Gottman Method for relationship concerns. The work aims to increase emotional awareness and day-to-day coping rather than promise quick fixes. Kevin frames therapy as a collaborative process where clients help set the agenda.
Kevin practices in New York as an LMHC and an LPCC. He provides culturally responsive, person-focused care and supports people seeking clearer direction, steadier moods, and healthier connections.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Kevin commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes attentive listening and building a trusting working relationship, which helps people feel heard and shape their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and offers practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.He also integrates EMDR when trauma memories are affecting daily life; that method involves targeted processing to reduce the intensity of distressing memories. The therapist and client decide together whether EMDR is an appropriate step based on symptoms and readiness.
Finding the right fit is part of the process. Kevin will collaborate with each person to choose or combine approaches that match their goals, preferences, and comfort level. He frames therapy as a team effort where methods are adjusted as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when life is busy. Online therapy can also let someone continue steady work during a major transition while keeping a regular appointment rhythm.
