About Kyle
Kyle Short is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with ten years of practice. He works with adults and adolescents on stress, anxiety, addictions, mood disorders, and other concerns listed in his profile.
He has experience supporting people with co-occurring conditions, including substance use alongside longer-term mental health issues. In sessions he focuses on practical change rather than abstract labels. Conversations aim to identify small, achievable steps that fit into everyday life.
Kyle draws on several well-known approaches to guide his work. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and move toward values-based action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot patterns in thinking and behavior and test new responses.
He also uses client-centered techniques to keep sessions focused on the person in front of him, and motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. Solution-focused ideas are applied when quick, concrete goals are useful.
Kyle keeps language plain and direct in sessions. He tends to focus on coping skills, relapse prevention for addictions, mood and stress management, and rebuilding routines after big life changes. People who prefer clear, goal-oriented work often find this style helpful.
To begin a first session, Kyle asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule through the site. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and the therapist works from Florida and conducts work in English only.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values; online sessions can focus on practicing small behaviors between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought and action patterns and test new responses through guided exercises and homework. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their reasons to change and resolve mixed feelings through collaborative conversation. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Kyle will discuss goals and preferences with each person and combine approaches that match those aims. That collaborative selection helps keep sessions focused and relevant to daily life. Confirm the session formats offered before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a day - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or a session without needing travel time. If camera use is difficult, other formats may reduce bandwidth or be less visually focused; check the available options to choose what suits practical needs and routines.Areas of expertise
