About Kidd
Dr. Kidd Colt is a licensed mental health counselor with 24 years of clinical experience. He practices in Florida and focuses on straightforward, practical therapy for people facing stress and anxious days.
He uses a calm, presence-based style and aims to make sessions feel like a place to talk and plan next steps. He trained in counseling and communication and has long experience working in community settings. That background informs his clear, problem-focused work with mood concerns, attention challenges, substance issues, grief, and relationship strains.
Background and approach
He encourages simple, doable changes rather than long lists of tasks. In sessions he often combines talk-based listening with tools that help change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Mindfulness practices are used to build calmer moments and better focus during everyday activities.
He also draws on trauma-informed ideas when past hurts shape current reactions. People who prefer a direct, practical approach tend to feel comfortable with his style. He supports work on self-esteem, sleep and eating concerns, panic or phobia symptoms, and coping with life transitions.
He also helps when compassion fatigue and burnout make it hard to keep up with daily demands. Appointments are available by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. New clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session.
The goal is to find useful steps that fit a person's life and schedule.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy centers conversations on the person's concerns and priorities. The therapist listens without judgment and helps people name what matters most, which can be especially helpful when life feels overwhelming or directionless.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes. It is commonly used for anxiety, panic, phobias, and mood concerns and often involves short exercises and homework between sessions.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These practices can help with stress, sleep issues, and attention challenges by creating calmer moments throughout the day.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and daily routines. Treatment can shift over time as different problems arise or priorities change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and face-to-face connection, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into busy schedules. Live chat and text messaging are convenient for brief check-ins, tracking mood between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into work, school, or family life.
