About Kevin
Kevin Schmidt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, and major life transitions.
Background and approach
He combines practical, evidence-informed techniques with an orientation that centers the client's own knowledge and strengths, encouraging active collaboration in setting goals and building coping skills. His approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered principles, focusing on patterns of thought and behavior while maintaining an empathetic, nonjudgmental stance.
Kevin addresses related concerns such as guilt and shame, impulsivity, mood and trauma-related symptoms, and a range of sexuality and intimacy issues. He aims to create a straightforward, dependable therapeutic relationship where clients can explore change at a manageable pace.
Outside of his practice, Kevin values downtime with family and friends and brings a relaxed, honest manner to sessions. He recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and works to make the process accessible and goal-oriented for each person he meets.
Practical approaches for online change and growth
Kevin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; this approach is often applied to anxiety, depression, and many forms of addictive or compulsive behavior. Client-Centered Therapy guides sessions with empathy and respect for the client's perspective, creating space for people to explore values, identity, and emotional concerns at their own pace.Choosing the right approach is part of the work, and Kevin treats that as a collaborative process. He will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then tailor CBT tools and client-centered supports to fit each person's needs rather than imposing a single method.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for scheduling and different communication styles. These formats allow clients to engage in regular sessions and skill practice from home or other convenient locations while maintaining continuity of care with a licensed professional.
