About Kyle
Kyle Thompson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and life transitions. He focuses on practical steps someone can use right away to feel steadier and more in control. Kyle writes in plain terms and aims to make therapy approachable for people who are worried or overwhelmed.
Kyle brings 20 years of experience to sessions and draws on several well-known therapeutic approaches.
Background and approach
He often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are woven into sessions to build awareness and willingness to act in line with personal values. He also combines those approaches with breathing, relaxation, and yoga-based strategies he learned through long practice as a yoga teacher.
Those tools are offered as skills to reduce tension, manage sleep problems, and support mood regulation. Clients leave sessions with simple practices to use between meetings. Kyle commonly addresses co-occurring concerns such as ADHD symptoms, grief, trauma, relationship strain, and workplace stress.
He also supports people dealing with addiction and the fallout from separation or divorce. The aim is steady, practical progress rather than quick fixes. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused.
Kyle works with each person to set clear, achievable steps and checks progress along the way. He provides straightforward coaching on life purpose, career choices, and rebuilding confidence as part of therapy.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what matters most to them and take small actions toward those values, even when anxiety or difficult feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic, low mood, or social anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices that can reduce rumination and improve sleep and emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kyle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then collaborate on a mix of methods that fit their situation. He adjusts strategies over time based on what helps and what feels doable for the client.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel time. Video is useful for longer therapy sessions and face-to-face conversation, phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support brief check-ins or skill practice between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a weekly routine while working toward steady progress.
