About Kevin Stroud

Hello! I am a therapist and clinical social worker in North Carolina with 5 years of experience in the field. I have previously worked with individuals in an inpatient long-term setting and with children and families to maintain family preservation. I have worked with clients experiencing issues such as depression, anxiety, parenting problems, communication problems, and post-traumatic stress.

I place a high emphasis on the importance of maintaining unconditional positive regard towards clients, as maintaining a strong working relationship can be critical towards addressing issues and making therapeutic gains. All individuals deserve to be heard and feel validation. From there, we can explore these difficult issues together and address negative feelings that cause hardship. I believe that solutions to our problems lie within all individuals, as each individual in the expert in their own life. My background lies in motivational interviewing, and cognitive and solution-focused therapies.

Asking for help takes a lot of strength and vulnerability. If you decide to move forward, I will be happy to assist you in reaching your goals!

“Kevin is always helpful and respectful. Kind and thoughtful. Always willing to provide resources.”

“Kevin has been a wonderful resource in processing my divorce, parental alienation, and a career change. I have made a lot of positive changes over the last few years and Kevin helped me through every step. I highly recommend his services!”

“Kevin is a great listener. He is very organized, pays attention, and is very skillful at helping me see different facets of issues. He has helped me navigate extremely difficult circumstances with compassion and strength. While he is very careful about not telling me how to act, he is very skillful at helping me see opportunities and avenues for reflection and action. I highly recommend him as a therapist.”

“My therapist is understanding and very helpful and has guided me through a lot of hard times and depression and anxiety. I couldn’t add for a better therapist.”

“He Is A Great Therapist”

“Compassionate, empathetic, patient, understanding, challenging at times. Grade A therapist”

“He is patient, sends me specific worksheets that are related to our last meeting. Keeps me grounded and moving forward. Helped my daughter with a trauma tremendously and got her out of a severe depression and panic attacks. The best counselor we could ever pray for!”

“Bottom line. Kevin has been more helpful than any therapists or doctors I’ve seen in the past. He’s knowledgeable and very patient. He’s responsive and very pleasant. He doesn’t judge nor does he make assumptions. I highly recommend Kevin!”

“Ive only had 1 session with Kevin but he seems to be a good fit for my therapy needs so far. Looking forward to additional sessions!”

“Mr. Kevin is a wonderful therapist. He is a great listener and offers a fresh perspective on things when we get stuck on assumptions or retreat to old, unhealthy communication skills. His sense of humor is subtle and helps when things gets too heavy. He has been instrumental in us gaining selfawareness about our marriage and overall relationship.”

“I’ve never been the type of person that like therapy but working with Kevin has been the best experience I’ve ever had. He makes me feel comfortable and I can trust him.”

“Kevin is awesome and attentive. He was the right person to match with and takes real interest in helping.”

“Kevin has helped me navigate a really difficult season of life”

“Kevin is very easy to talk to. Excellent in getting teens to elaborate. Compliments the client for their insight, focuses in on the main problem noticed during each therapy appointment. Sends you great worksheets and information/guidance on next steps. Listens intently and does not just agree with everything my daughter states (this was an issue in the past), easily engaged, has a sense of humor”

“Kevin feels like family at this point he has helped me through many difficult times and don’t know where I would be without his continued support!”
