About Kenneth

Kenneth Lingle is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with 22 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, addictions, grief, and a range of life changes. He also supports people with intimacy and body-image concerns, parenting stress, career questions, and compassion fatigue.

Ken uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and on acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and small steps. Attachment-focused work helps when past relationships keep repeating in current life. He also blends skills from dialectical behavior work and motivational interviewing when someone needs tools for emotion regulation or to change a behavior pattern.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Ken listens for what’s getting in the way day to day, then practices specific skills with the person in short, usable exercises. He explains the rationale behind each exercise and adjusts the pace to what the person can manage.

His background includes long-term roles in human services and work with adults affected by divorce, grief, trauma, and substance-related problems within families. That experience shapes his approach to complex issues that overlap mental health, caregiving, and physical illness.

Ken offers work for a broad set of concerns including adoption and foster care issues, aging and caregiver stress, autism-related challenges, codependency, and certain personality issues. He conducts sessions in English and accepts international clients, and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to the person and taking small actions toward those values while learning to accept uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It can help with depression, anxiety, and life transitions by making goals more concrete. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches people to notice thinking patterns and try specific experiments to change behaviors and mood. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current expectations and reactions, and it helps people change repeated patterns in their close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review problems, goals, and preferences together and suggest which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is tracked.

The original profile lists messaging, live chat, phone, and video as service formats. Confirm the session options before booking to know which formats are available now. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let someone choose audio-only time or video depending on bandwidth and comfort. The therapist uses sessions to practice skills, set brief homework, and follow up between meetings when that fits a client’s needs.
