About Kyle
Kyle Thompson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with two decades of practice supporting people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, mood shifts, addiction, grief, and ADHD. He speaks plainly and aims to make therapy feel useful and practical. He often works with adults facing life transitions or coping with trauma and loss.
Kyle uses straightforward tools people can try between sessions. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and build new routines.
Background and approach
He blends mindfulness practices to help calm the body and focus the mind. His approach also reflects a long background in yoga and meditation. He has taught yoga since 2003 and brings breathing, relaxation, and body-awareness exercises into sessions when they fit a person's goals.
These techniques are offered alongside talk-based work rather than instead of it. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Kyle listens for what matters most, helps set clear, manageable steps, and adjusts his pace to each person's needs.
He emphasizes practical coping skills for sleep, anger, motivation, and everyday functioning. People seeking help for addictions, bipolar mood concerns, or complex co-occurring issues can expect a blend of motivational interviewing and cognitive strategies. The intent is to build momentum and reduce setbacks over time.
Kyle practices from Michigan and conducts therapy in English. He accepts international clients and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Getting started means completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the person's calendar.
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take small steps toward meaningful values. It is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and when life feels directionless. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and trying different behaviors to change outcomes; it is practical for depression, panic, and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy adds simple breathing and attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which can support mood and ADHD-related challenges.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that match those goals. That collaborative process helps steer which techniques are emphasized and how quickly new skills are introduced.
Online formats offer flexibility for different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided breathing or relaxation work. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or getting support between sessions. These options let people fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity when travel or schedules change.
