Kia Hebb , LPC

Kia Hebb is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in West Virginia with seven years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges with self-esteem. She holds a Master of Science in Counseling (MS) and combines formal training with lived experience as a member of the LGBTQIA community to provide informed, affirming care for gender identity and sexuality concerns.

Her practice addresses a broad range of issues including attachment and abandonment wounds, codependency, communication problems, mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, eating and body-image concerns, and help navigating consensual non-monogamy or infidelity. She also works with clients coping with domestic violence, divorce and separation, HIV/AIDS related challenges, and impulse-related difficulties. Kia brings direct experience supporting people working with kink, BDSM, and alternative sexual cultures.

Kia approaches therapy from a collaborative stance that honors the client as the expert on their life. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered principles and will integrate attachment-focused work, mindfulness, or motivational interviewing when helpful. Between-session activities and a practical goals sheet with nine focus areas are used to keep progress moving and to translate insights into everyday change.

She emphasizes accessible, goal-oriented therapy and believes everyone deserves quality support. Kia is not currently accepting new clients.

Attachment, Client-Centered, and Cognitive Approaches for Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps clients explore connection styles, repair relational wounds, and build more secure ways of relating, which can be useful for intimacy, abandonment, and attachment concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, validation, and the client’s own expertise; this approach supports self-exploration, identity work, and building self-esteem by creating a nonjudgmental space for the client to find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it effective for anxiety, mood concerns, and developing coping skills for day-to-day challenges.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Kia works collaboratively with each person to clarify goals, try different methods, and adjust the plan based on what aligns with their needs, preferences, and progress. Licensed professionals guide that exploration so the work feels purposeful and personalized.

Online therapy with this practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, attend sessions from home or work, and use between-session communication to practice skills and stay connected to therapeutic progress.
