Kevin McGarvey, LPC

Kevin McGarvey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Pennsylvania (PA LPC PC014335) with 5 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on concerns such as stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship difficulties, grief, sleep problems, and self-esteem challenges, and also addresses issues like obsessions and compulsions, panic attacks, personality disorders, phobias, and social anxiety.

Most of his experience comes from working in partial hospital settings with people who have significant mental illness, along with a couple of years in individual outpatient care. He has extensive experience supporting clients diagnosed with personality disorders and assisting people through major life transitions and coping challenges.

Kevin’s clinical approach centers on the client as the expert in their own life. He emphasizes understanding the factors that contribute to symptoms rather than focusing solely on diagnostic labels, and he tailors conversations and treatment plans to meet each person’s unique needs. His practice draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), existential therapy, mindfulness therapy, and solution-focused techniques to create practical, individualized strategies.

He aims for a relaxed, respectful, and compassionate therapeutic atmosphere and seeks to learn about each person’s background and perspective so he can offer relevant support. Taking the first step can feel difficult, and he is available to answer questions before beginning work. Kevin provides services in English and is based in Pennsylvania. He is not currently accepting new clients.
