Kevin Bagwell, LPC, LPCC

Approaches that fit online parenting support

Kevin often uses client-centered work to create a respectful, listening space where parents can talk through what matters most to them and set goals that feel doable. Client-centered methods help people feel understood and guide conversations toward practical changes.

He also applies cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, low mood, and patterns that interfere with parenting or relationships. Narrative ideas are used to reframe difficult stories people tell about themselves or their families and to open new possibilities for action.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Kevin will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's needs, goals, and daily realities, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week. Video lets people read facial cues and have a fuller conversation, phone can be lower bandwidth or simpler when movement is needed, and messaging allows short check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options help people maintain continuity of care while balancing work, parenting, and other commitments.
