About Kevin
Kevin Bagwell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting stress, and other life challenges. He aims to create a calm, respectful space where someone can talk through what feels overwhelming and make practical changes.
Kevin draws on straightforward approaches that match each person's needs. He blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools to help identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors.
Background and approach
He also uses elements of existential work to help people find meaning during big life shifts, and narrative ideas to reframe painful stories. Kevin has experience across community mental health, nonprofit settings, university psychiatry, and independent practice. That background informs a flexible style that suits people who want both empathy and clear, goal-focused steps.
He emphasizes building trust first, then moving at a pace that feels manageable. Typical sessions focus on real-life problems. That might mean learning skills for anxiety and stress, planning next steps after a breakup or loss, addressing addiction-related behaviors, or working through family and communication issues.
He also supports people coping with ADHD, grief, eating concerns, and career decisions. Kevin uses plain language in sessions and offers a mix of short-term coaching and longer-term therapy depending on goals. He encourages small experiments between sessions and checks in about what's working.
People who want a direct, compassionate approach may find his style helpful.
Approaches you can use in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on warm, nonjudgmental listening and helping people explore their feelings at their own pace. It helps when someone needs acceptance and space to sort out what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether to focus on skill-building, exploring meaning, or changing everyday habits so sessions fit the person’s needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick updates, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
