About Kevin

Kevin Kurtz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of clinical experience helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship conflicts, grief, trauma, and life transitions.

Background and approach

He approaches each person without bias and aims to help clients develop insight, practical coping skills, and clearer direction in areas such as self-esteem, career concerns, intimacy-related issues, and mood disorders. His work also addresses specialized concerns like attachment wounds, abandonment, infidelity, and substance use challenges.

Kevin blends evidence-informed strategies with a person-centered stance, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Gottman Method techniques when appropriate. He has graduate training in professional counseling and previous experience in Christian counseling, alcohol and drug counseling, and anger management.

Sessions emphasize collaboration, skill-building, and awareness so clients can move toward the balance and goals they value. Based in Georgia, Kevin uses an eclectic style tailored to each client’s needs and is committed to supporting people through difficult choices and transitions.

He invites individuals who are ready to take steps toward change to begin the process and work toward more adaptive patterns and greater emotional resilience.

How targeted approaches translate to online care

Kevin commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and then practicing new, more effective skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that are useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to evaluate symptoms, goals, and personal preferences, then tailor strategies and exercises that fit the individual’s circumstances. That collaborative planning helps determine which techniques to prioritize and how to structure sessions.

Online therapy with Kevin is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to continue skill practice between meetings, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access help without travel, while still working with licensed professionals to pursue meaningful change.
