About Mindi

Mindi Koczot is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with seven years of experience. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship tensions, ADHD, grief, and many other life shifts. She also addresses concerns like body image, attachment wounds, parenting strain, and career frustration.

Mindi draws on existential ideas about meaning and purpose to help people clarify what matters to them. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance when reactions feel overwhelming.

Her approach includes practical tools such as breathing exercises, meditation, and positive affirmations. She also incorporates somatic techniques and Emotional Freedom Technique to help people notice how emotions show up in the body. Sessions typically focus on clear, doable strategies alongside deeper questions about values and direction.

Mindi frames work as collaborative. She listens for what is getting in the way of a client's goals and offers concrete skills to reduce reactivity and improve communication. She also supports people who want to explore meaning, midlife concerns, or identity questions as part of managing anger and stress.

People who come for help can expect plain language, step-by-step skill practice, and discussions about values and purpose. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and follow the site's intake steps to schedule a first meeting.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based ideas focus on how early relationships shape current emotional responses. Online sessions can explore relationship patterns and how past attachments affect anger and closeness, helping people notice triggers and practice different responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions CBT strategies often include identifying distorted thoughts, testing them, and practicing new behavioral experiments between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills designed to reduce impulsive reactions and improve communication under stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether to focus more on skills training, values and meaning, or body-centered methods so sessions match the client’s needs.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people practice skills between sessions in their everyday environment while still getting guided feedback from a licensed professional.
