He also helps with life changes, relationship and sexuality questions, and career or purpose concerns. He is listed with a focus on family and parenting and speaks English.
Kyle holds the LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - and brings 20 years of experience in counseling. Kyle works in a straightforward, calm way.
Background and approach
He favors short practical conversations and concrete exercises rather than long lectures. Many people who meet him do breathing and mindfulness practices in session. He also uses cognitive-behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing to help people change unhelpful patterns.
His training includes a long background in yoga and meditation, which he blends with talking therapy. That often means simple relaxation and stress-reduction moves are paired with skill practice for daily life. Sessions focus on habits, thoughts, and small steps that a person can try between meetings.
Kyle is based in Michigan and has helped people work through mood disorders, panic, bipolar concerns, and trauma-related issues. He also addresses addiction, co-morbid conditions, guilt and shame, and compassion fatigue. His approach aims to help people feel more steady and able to manage day-to-day demands.
For people who prefer remote care, he offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session when ready.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Kyle commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based practices. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and building new coping behaviors, which can help with anxiety, panic, and mood problems. Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and improve calm, useful for stress, sleep issues, and emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that match those needs. Choices are adjusted over time based on what helps most in day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. These formats let people fit therapy around family and work life and practice skills between meetings. Licensed professionals can guide breathing exercises, coach through difficult moments, and assign short exercises to use between sessions, all in ways that suit the client’s routine and comfort.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
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.
