About Barry

Barry Krevokuch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. He focuses on helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. He emphasizes practical steps and support so people can start making changes that matter to them.

Barry frames therapy as a partnership and encourages clients to notice their own strengths as tools for recovery and growth. He brings 18 years of counseling experience to conversations about relationships, family concerns, grief, trauma, anger, and patterns like codependency and isolation.

Background and approach

His approach blends short-term strategies with attention to deeper patterns that keep people stuck. In sessions he uses clear, direct techniques alongside reflective discussion to address habits, motivation, and coping skills. Barry uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior.

He also draws on Motivational Interviewing to build readiness for change and Mindfulness Therapy to steady attention and reduce reactivity. These methods are mixed depending on what a person needs that week. He values a respectful, strengths-based stance and aims to empower clients rather than dictate solutions.

Therapy involves setting concrete goals, practicing new responses, and checking progress over time. People looking for practical tools and steady support often find this style useful. Sessions are provided in English and delivered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

The format and pace are chosen together so that therapy fits into each person’s life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Barry often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so a person can try small changes and see different results. He also uses Motivational Interviewing to build a person’s confidence and readiness to change by focusing on their own reasons and goals. Mindfulness Therapy is another tool he brings in to help reduce reactivity and improve attention through simple awareness practices.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about what matters most and try methods that match their goals and preferences. Over time the plan is adjusted based on what’s working and what isn’t, so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, allow for shorter check-ins when useful, and let people keep continuity even when schedules or locations change. Licensed professionals can use these tools to combine structured exercises, motivational conversations, and mindfulness practices in ways that suit each client’s pace and needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
