About Kay
Kay Adkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Kay also supports clients facing relationship strain, grief, self-esteem concerns, addiction struggles, and sleep problems. They bring 11 years of clinical experience to each session and speak English.
Kay takes a straightforward, person-focused approach. Sessions are guided by the client’s goals and pace. Kay listens first, then offers clear techniques people can try between visits.
Background and approach
The style is practical and respectful, with an emphasis on building coping skills and clearer thinking. Clinically, Kay draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. They also use motivational interviewing to support change and trauma-focused approaches when past hurt affects daily life.
Interventions are chosen to fit the issue and the person. Kay’s background includes work in outpatient care and residential settings. Over the years they have worked with people facing mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, gender-related issues, and life transitions.
That range informs a flexible, nonjudgmental way of working. People who meet with Kay can expect short-term strategies and longer-term planning when needed. The aim is steady progress toward clearer goals, improved mood, and better daily functioning.
Kay partners with each person to find what actually helps in their life.
How Kay’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy puts the person’s own goals at the center. Kay follows the client’s lead, listens closely, and helps clarify what matters most. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to sort out feelings and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Kay uses CBT to help with anxiety, mood problems, sleep issues, and day-to-day stress by teaching concrete skills you can practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Kay will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they choose methods that fit the issue and the person’s life, and they adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth or camera use is a concern, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and let people use formats that match their daily routines.
