About Kurt
Kurt Goglin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 20 years of practice. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, anger, low motivation, and depression.

He uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people respond differently to difficult situations. In sessions he helps people identify their strengths and apply practical skills to reduce overwhelming feelings. He talks through behavioral strategies and coping steps that can be used in everyday life.
Kurt pays attention to how patterns in thinking and behavior keep problems going. He helps people try small changes and notice what works. He also addresses problems such as obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, paranoia, and loneliness with clear, step-by-step work.
People who are worn out by caregiving, chronic illness, or relationship strain can work on ways to manage stress and set realistic goals. He also supports people processing guilt, shame, divorce, infidelity, or the search for life purpose.
The first sessions focus on practical concerns and setting simple goals. Kurt encourages gradual progress rather than quick fixes. He asks about what matters most to the person and helps plan concrete next steps for change.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Many of the techniques Kurt uses come from evidence-based therapeutic approaches that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive-behavioral style work helps people notice thought patterns that increase anxiety and then test out different responses to those thoughts. This approach is often used for panic, social worries, phobias, and general anxiety.Behavioral strategies are another common focus and involve practicing real-life steps in small, manageable pieces. For example, breaking down a feared social situation into tiny tasks can make facing it less overwhelming and build confidence over time.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Kurt will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person’s goals, preferences, and pace. He reviews progress and adjusts tools so the work stays relevant to what the client wants to change.
