About Kenneth

Kenneth Hoeck is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 22 years of experience. He helps people who are stressed, anxious, or struggling after trauma. He also works with those facing depression, sleep problems, anger, addictions, and issues related to intimacy, parenting, and identity.

Kenneth speaks English and accepts clients internationally. Kenneth uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help clients change what isn’t working. He helps people make plans that touch everyday life - sleep, movement, relationships, nature time, and music or sound.

Background and approach

He has training in biofeedback methods and in mindfulness-based cognitive approaches, and he blends tools to fit each person’s needs. He has worked internationally and lived in South America for several years. That experience, combined with graduate study in anthropology and cross-cultural cognitive topics, informs his attention to cultural factors.

He pays careful attention to a person’s history and context when shaping a plan. In sessions he focuses on clear goals and steps clients can try between meetings. He aims for respectful, sensitive, and compassionate collaboration.

The work is practical and paced to what you can handle. For parents and caregivers concerned about family or parenting challenges, he offers straightforward guidance and tools that can be used at home. Getting started usually begins with a brief matching process and scheduling the first meeting, after which he tailors a plan based on your priorities.

Approaches that inform online care

Mindfulness-based cognitive approaches combine simple mindfulness practices with cognitive work to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses. This method often helps with anxiety, mood concerns, stress, and sleep by teaching short exercises and ways to reframe thoughts. Biofeedback-informed techniques use real-time signals about the body to guide breathing and relaxation skills. These tools can be useful for managing anxiety, panic, anger, and symptoms that affect sleep and focus. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kenneth will talk with each person about goals, concerns, and everyday routines, then recommend which techniques to try first. Plans are adjusted based on what feels helpful and doable for the client. Online sessions provide flexible options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit meetings into busy family schedules and to continue work between appointments. They also let people use tools and exercises in their own home environment, which can speed learning and make practice more practical.
