About Mindi

Mindi Koczot is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) who blends cognitive behavioral techniques with existential ideas to help clients pursue clearer purpose and practical change.

Background and approach

She frames therapy around helping people identify values and meaning while also addressing the day-to-day thoughts and behaviors that keep them stuck. Her approach integrates evidence-informed skills from CBT and dialectical behavior strategies alongside somatic practices to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Over seven years of clinical experience in North Carolina, Mindi incorporates mindfulness, breathing exercises, positive affirmations, and elements of yoga into sessions when helpful. She also draws on attachment-based perspectives and client-centered principles to create a therapeutic environment that encourages openness and collaboration.

Her work addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, ADHD, bipolar challenges, eating and sleeping difficulties, career and life-purpose questions, and compassion fatigue. Clients can expect a blended style that attends to thoughts, emotions, and bodily responses while exploring deeper questions of meaning and belonging.

Mindi aims to help people feel seen in the moment and to develop practical skills that support sustainable change and a clearer sense of self.

Approach-Driven Online Care that Balances Meaning and Skills



Mindi integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy into her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical strategies to change behaviors and emotional responses, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns formed early in life to help clients understand how those dynamics influence current relationships and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to clarify goals, preferences, and presenting needs, then adapts methods from CBT, attachment work, or client-centered principles as appropriate. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in shaping the pace and focus of treatment rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow continuity of care across busy lives and make it possible to practice skills between sessions with ongoing therapist support.
