About Mindi
Mindi Koczot is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with seven years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting strain, ADHD, grief, and other life changes. Sessions focus on helping people sort through daily pressures and regain a clearer sense of direction.
Mindi draws on existential ideas about meaning and purpose to help clients consider what matters to them. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking. Dialectical behavior strategies are used to build emotion regulation and coping skills.
Her approach also includes attachment-based perspectives to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Mindi uses practical tools such as breathing exercises, meditation, and positive affirmations to reduce anxiety and calm the nervous system. She sometimes integrates somatic strategies and Emotional Freedom Technique when appropriate for the client.
Sessions are focused and straightforward. Conversations address what is happening now and what small changes could make life more manageable. For parents and adults dealing with strained relationships or parenting stress, she helps identify clearer boundaries, communication patterns, and coping options.
Mindi asks clients to consider values and purpose while building concrete skills for everyday life. She encourages gradual steps - short practices and skills that can fit into a busy household. The emphasis is on usable tools that support emotion regulation, clearer thinking, and more steady routines.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect present behavior and feelings. Online sessions can still reflect on those patterns through conversation, mapping relationship histories, and practicing new ways of relating in day-to-day life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments. In an online session this can mean setting simple homework, tracking thoughts between meetings, and reviewing results together. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness skills that are taught in short, practical steps and practiced between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to emphasize. That collaborative process helps match techniques to what the client needs and to what fits their daily routine.
Confirm the therapist's available session formats before booking since specific formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy household, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It supports working on skills, tracking progress, and keeping momentum between meetings without promising any particular format or outcome.
