About Kevin

Kevin Sockwell brings 32 years of clinical experience to his Maryland practice, combining medical training and licensed counseling to support people facing a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

He holds an MD and is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), and he guides clients through issues such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, ADHD, relationship and family difficulties, grief, parenting, and coping with life changes. His approach emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore difficult thoughts and emotions.

He integrates evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness alongside client-centered and narrative techniques to tailor work to each person’s needs. Motivational Interviewing is also part of his toolkit for people addressing substance use or readiness for change.

People who seek his support can expect a collaborative process that focuses on practical strategies, clearer self-understanding, and increased coping skills. Kevin aims to help clients move toward more fulfilling and resilient lives by building momentum from small, achievable steps and by honoring each client’s values and goals.

Approaches and Flexibility for Online Care

Kevin blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to provide supportive, practical online treatment. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening deeply and offering a respectful, empathetic space so clients can explore feelings and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy concentrates on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, obsessions, and many everyday challenges.

Finding the right approach is collaborative rather than fixed. Kevin works with each person to assess which methods fit their needs and preferences, and he adjusts techniques over time based on progress and goals. That collaborative stance helps tailor interventions for issues such as addictions, trauma recovery, self-esteem, ADHD-related struggles, and relationship concerns.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase convenience and access. These options allow scheduling around work and family life, enable continued momentum between appointments, and make it easier for clients to engage from home or other settings. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver structured therapy, skill-building, and ongoing support while keeping the focus on practical, achievable steps.
