About Kurt
Kurt Goglin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania with 20 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, or low mood. He also supports those facing relationship strain, compassion fatigue, and struggles with motivation or self-esteem.
He focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions. Kurt works with clients to identify strengths and build small, sustainable habits. That might mean learning breathing and grounding skills, trying new ways to talk about hard topics, or setting realistic daily goals.
Background and approach
Over two decades he has helped people dealing with chronic pain, caregiver stress, and the fallout of separation or infidelity. He also addresses obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, phobias, and patterns that feed shame or guilt. Sessions aim to break problems into manageable parts so progress feels steady and clear.
Kurt takes a straightforward, hopeful approach. He encourages people to notice progress, however small, and to use setbacks as information about what to try next. He emphasizes collaboration and practical tools rather than lengthy theory.
Starting therapy begins with a simple sign-up and a short matching questionnaire. From there clients schedule sessions by the therapist's listed availability and pick the session format that fits their life.
How his approaches work online and in session
He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills people can practice daily. One common approach emphasizes teaching simple anxiety-management tools such as paced breathing, grounding techniques, and exposure-based steps that reduce avoidance. These methods help with panic attacks, phobias, and persistent worry.Another approach centers on mood and behavior activation. That means setting small activity goals, tracking what helps lift mood, and shifting routines that maintain low motivation or depression. This approach is useful for people who are stuck in patterns and want concrete ways to re-engage with life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, try methods in session, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide collaboratively which techniques fit their goals and circumstances.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging allow flexible, ongoing contact that fits into busy days. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
