About Scott

Scott Kilousky is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who welcomes clients seeking clarity and understanding around a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, grief, and life transitions.

Background and approach

He frames difficulties as often rooted in limited self-understanding and acceptance, and offers a calm, exploratory stance where clients can reflect on the experiences that led them to seek help. Drawing on a collaborative, non-directive style, he blends client-centered, existential, and solution-focused ideas with harm reduction and interpersonal perspectives.

This approach emphasizes listening, helping clients identify what matters most to them, and developing practical steps to move forward. Scott’s training and four years of clinical practice in Hawaii inform a gentle, curiosity-driven method that supports people working through anger, compassion fatigue, bipolar concerns, isolation, and issues of self-worth.

Sessions aim to create room for self-discovery and purposeful change while addressing immediate coping needs. Scott works in English and offers multiple online session formats to fit different schedules and communication preferences.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

Scott integrates client-centered and solution-focused approaches to support people working through life changes, relationship struggles, ADHD-related concerns, and mood issues. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and acceptance, giving clients space to reflect on their experiences while the therapist follows their lead and fosters self-understanding. Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on goals and small, concrete steps that can produce noticeable change, which is useful for those wanting targeted strategies and measurable progress.

Finding the right approach is often a collaborative effort. Scott will work together with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailor methods that balance deep exploration with practical problem solving. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work aligns with what matters most to the client rather than imposing a single method.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while accommodating busy lives, geographic limitations, or comfort with remote interaction. Licensed professionals can adapt interventions across these formats to support ongoing progress and everyday coping.
