   About Kia

   Kia Hebb is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in West Virginia. She brings seven years of clinical experience and a practical focus on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, and relationship concerns. Kia aims to help clients move toward clearer goals and better day-to-day functioning.

   Kia centers sessions on what each person wants to achieve. She asks questions, listens closely, and helps people set concrete goals across life areas like relationships, work, health, and self-esteem. She prefers short, goal-focused work and gives between-session tasks when they will help progress.

   Sessions are about 45 minutes. The first meeting is a get-to-know-you visit where Kia reviews background, answers questions, and asks what brought the person to therapy. After that intake she usually starts with a goals sheet covering nine life areas so progress is easier to track.

   Her approach blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas and attachment-informed thinking. Motivational Interviewing and mindfulness practices are also part of her toolbox when they fit the client’s aims. Kia describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client is the expert on their life.

   She pays attention to topics often important in marginalized communities, including gender identity, sexual orientation, and alternative sexual cultures. Kia also helps people facing issues like body image, codependency, communication problems, grief, and impulsivity. Her focus is on helping people find practical steps forward and clearer personal goals.

2. How Kia’s approaches work in online therapy

   Kia uses a mix of client-centered methods, attachment-based ideas, and Motivational Interviewing in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what the client says so they can make their own choices and build confidence. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people try different ways of relating to others. Motivational Interviewing helps people explore mixed feelings and find their own reasons to change when they are unsure.
   
   Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kia works with each person to identify goals and then tries approaches that match those goals. She treats therapy as a collaboration where the client’s needs and preferences shape the plan and any between-session tasks.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand. It also can make it simpler to continue steady work on goals while balancing day-to-day responsibilities.
