About Kia
Dr. Kia Everett is a licensed professional counselor with 30 years of experience helping people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and low self-esteem. She creates a calm, empathic space where clients can talk through hard problems and build clearer next steps. Her style is warm and collaborative, focused on practical changes that fit day-to-day life.
Dr. Everett centers the person in care rather than a one-size-fits-all method. She listens for each client’s goals and tailors work around communication, coping skills, and emotional regulation. She also offers support for relationship strains, grief, and the fallout from major life changes.
Her background includes long-term clinical practice with a wide range of concerns, from workplace stress and compassion fatigue to issues tied to adoption, blended families, and caregiver strain. First responder issues and posttraumatic stress are included in the areas she addresses. She also helps people manage challenges that can follow natural or human-caused disasters.
Therapeutic approaches include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, emotionally-focused strategies, and existential perspectives. These are used flexibly to meet practical goals, such as improving communication or reducing overwhelming worry.
Dr. Everett holds LPC credentials and practices in Pennsylvania. Sessions are offered in English. Prospective clients are encouraged to use the site’s matching tools to learn more and choose a first appointment that fits their needs.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the client. In practice this means the therapist follows your lead, helps you name priorities, and supports choices that feel right for you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. It is practical work that often includes homework and simple skill-building between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings attention to emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills. It offers concrete tools when emotions feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person to pick or combine methods based on goals, needs, and what feels most useful. That collaborative planning helps shape session pace and topics so work stays focused and relevant.
Session formats are not specified in this profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins during stressful periods. It can also let people choose shorter or differently timed meetings when that helps them keep therapy consistent.
