About Kevin
Kevin Hoops is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 24 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are dealing with anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, or big life changes. He listens for strengths and builds on them so people can move toward clearer goals and better day-to-day coping.
Kevin believes clients know their own stories best. He treats each person as the expert on their life while offering guidance, accountability, and practical tools.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on small, usable steps rather than long lists of abstract goals. Many people come to him for help with intimacy and connection issues, grief, self-esteem struggles, and problems that come from past abuse or family dynamics. He also addresses work stress, mood concerns such as depression or bipolar disorder, and concerns tied to identity and LGBT-related stress.
Kevin draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety, improve communication, and handle strong emotions like anger or shame. He uses concrete strategies and regular check-ins to track progress and adjust plans when needed. People often leave sessions with a clear next step they can try between meetings.
Kevin supports practical behavioral changes, communication practice, and strategies to reduce worry. His approach is steady, direct, and focused on helping people regain a sense of control and forward momentum.
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Kevin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches tools for managing anxiety and strong emotions, such as breathing, grounding, and behavioral experiments to reduce avoidance and worry. These techniques help people handle day-to-day stress and regain routine functioning.He also uses an attachment-informed approach to address relationship and intimacy concerns. This work looks at patterns of closeness and distance, helps people understand their reactions, and builds new ways of communicating and connecting that reduce conflict and increase safety in relationships.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose and adapt methods based on their goals, preferences, and what seems to be working. Plans are reviewed regularly and changed as needed so therapy stays useful.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which allows more scheduling flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit short check-ins or homework support between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work and life obligations.
