About Kevin
Kevin Peterca is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, depression, and work or career challenges. He brings 35 years of experience to sessions and focuses on practical, goal-driven counseling that aims to address immediate concerns. He also works with people dealing with addictions, intimacy issues, parenting and fatherhood concerns, men’s issues, and compassion fatigue.
His style is collaborative and direct. He uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and adapts them to each person's needs rather than applying one fixed method. Sessions typically focus on clear goals, small skill building, and steps people can try between meetings.
Kevin has a long history of short-term, goal-directed counseling for individuals and couples. He draws on mindfulness and solution-focused techniques alongside cognitive tools to help with mood disorders, coping with life changes, and communication problems. He also incorporates elements from the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are a focus.
People working with him can expect straightforward conversation, practical strategies, and an emphasis on measurable progress. He invites client input about what feels useful and adjusts plans when needed. His years in practice include work with hospice and end-of-life topics, caregiver stress, and issues around forgiveness and guilt.
Sessions are conducted in English and reflect his practice in Ohio. Prospective clients who want to know more about how he might approach a specific concern are encouraged to ask about methods and expected steps before scheduling.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Kevin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or addictive behaviors. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation during stressful moments.He also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy in short-term work, which emphasizes clear, achievable goals and building on what already helps. Together, these approaches are aimed at practical steps - skills to try between sessions and ways to measure small improvements over time. Determining the best approach is a collaborative process between therapist and client based on needs, goals, and preferences.
Session formats were not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so sessions can occur around work or caregiving responsibilities. Licensed professionals tailor session pacing and techniques to what works in the moment rather than promising a single fixed path.
