About Mindi

Mindi Koczot is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) who helps people clarify purpose, reduce distress, and feel more like themselves. She blends practical tools with reflective work so clients can notice small changes that add up. Her style aims to make sessions calm, focused, and respectful of each person’s pace.

She draws on existential ideas to help people explore meaning and direction. That often pairs with cognitive behavioral strategies to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Dialectical behavior techniques are used when learning skills for emotion regulation and tolerating strong feelings.

Mindi also brings trauma-aware practices and body-centered methods into sessions. She may guide simple breathing or grounding exercises and sometimes uses somatic approaches to help people reconnect with their bodily signals. Meditation, positive affirmations, and movement like yoga are tools she offers when they fit a person’s needs.

The therapist works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues, ADHD, relationship struggles, grief, and career questions. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, guilt and shame, and coping with life transitions.

With seven years of clinical experience, Mindi aims to make therapy a collaborative process. She invites people to bring honest questions and real-life concerns so they can build practical skills that support daily life and longer-term goals.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape how people feel and relate. Online sessions can help identify patterns coming from early bonds and practice new ways of connecting to others and to oneself. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. In remote conversations, clients learn to spot unhelpful thoughts, test them, and practice new responses that reduce anxiety, sleep disruption, or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting plans based on what the client prefers and needs.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and reduce time spent traveling. It also allows people to use exercises like guided breathing, brief mindfulness practices, and worksheets between meetings. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available and which will best match your needs.
