About Kevin

Kevin Herbert is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 18 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes, and he also offers life-purpose focused coaching. Kevin uses approaches such as hypnotherapy, mindfulness therapy, and somatic therapy to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes.

He speaks plainly in sessions and focuses on what a person is dealing with now. People typically talk about work transitions, loss, chronic health struggles, communication problems, or feelings of emptiness. Kevin helps clients name problems, try new ways of coping, and set small, realistic goals.

Kevin’s work covers a wide range of concerns including abandonment, attachment issues, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, divorce and separation, and fatherhood issues. He also supports people coping with cancer, aging and geriatric issues, dissociation, and disaster-related stress. Sessions often center on skills for emotion regulation and improving day-to-day functioning.

He integrates mindfulness practices to calm attention and somatic methods to notice how the body holds stress. Hypnotherapy is used when appropriate to access focused attention for behavior change and symptom relief. The overall aim is practical: reduce disruptive patterns and expand choices in daily life.

Kevin works in English and accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person selects the See online therapy options button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules a first session.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Kevin uses mindfulness therapy to help people learn to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept away. That approach often teaches short attention exercises and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and ground focus.

Somatic therapy is used to bring attention to how the body holds tension. In sessions, clients are coached to notice posture, breath, and movement and to try small adjustments that can change how stress feels and how they respond to it.

Hypnotherapy involves guided, focused attention to support behavior change and symptom relief. It is offered as a tool to reinforce coping skills, reduce intrusive thoughts, or support shifts in habit when appropriate for the person’s goals.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss how these methods might fit the client’s needs and preferences and will adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some approaches, like brief mindfulness practices or somatic coaching, adapt well to remote sessions and can be practiced between meetings to keep progress moving.
