About Kenneth

Kenneth Roberts is a licensed clinician who uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people face hard problems. He is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Minnesota with 12 years of experience. He speaks plainly and focuses on concrete steps that reduce distress rather than getting lost in jargon.

Kenneth helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. He also addresses grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, mood disorders, bipolar issues, and challenges tied to ADHD.

Background and approach

He pays attention to how multiple problems interact, such as co-morbidity and substance use. In sessions he draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. He uses Motivational Interviewing when people want to build readiness for change.

He also applies trauma-focused approaches when past hurt is central to a person's struggle. Kenneth believes pain should be named and talked about rather than hidden. He aims to create a steady, straightforward space where clients can tell their story, try new skills, and notice small changes.

His work often includes practical tools, goal-setting, and regular check-ins on progress. He offers care from Minnesota and communicates in English. Kenneth accepts international clients and works through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Practical approaches for online care and trauma work

Kenneth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try concrete behavior changes that reduce distress. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday struggles because it focuses on skills you can practice between sessions. He also employs Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their own reasons for change and build momentum when they feel stuck; this approach is brief and goal-focused. When past harm is central, Trauma-Focused Therapy is used to address painful memories and the ways those memories affect daily life.

Picking the right approach is part of the therapy process. Kenneth works collaboratively to figure out which methods match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try techniques, check what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the client's life.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to connect from different places. These formats let people use short check-ins or longer conversations depending on what they need. For many, remote work increases flexibility while keeping the focus on clear goals, skill practice, and steady progress.

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.

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.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
