About Kia
Kia Hebb is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in West Virginia. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, addictions, intimacy-related concerns, and challenges around self-esteem. Kia aims to create a straightforward space where people can talk about what matters to them and look for practical steps forward.
Kia uses a goals-based way of working that puts the client’s priorities first. Early sessions gather background and set clear goals across life areas like relationships, work, health, and emotional well-being.
How Kia works
She revisits those goals regularly so therapy stays focused and useful. Her approach blends attachment-based ideas with client-centered care and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she pays attention to relationship patterns, listens without judging, and helps people try new thoughts and behaviors.
Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolbox when helpful. Kia has seven years of experience as a counselor. She offers sessions that include a mix of skill practice and reflection, plus short between-session tasks when appropriate.
First meetings are relaxed introductions where practical questions and expectations are discussed. She commonly addresses issues such as abandonment and attachment concerns, body image and eating-related problems, codependency, communication difficulties, gender dysphoria and HIV/AIDS related concerns, and a range of relationship and intimacy topics including BDSM and kink.
Kia also supports people facing impulsivity, disruptive mood dysregulation concerns, domestic violence, divorce or separation, and related family-of-origin struggles.

How Kia’s Approaches Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past and current relationships shape expectations and reactions. Online sessions let clients talk through relationship patterns and practice new ways of relating in real time. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on an accepting, nonjudgmental stance where the client leads the pace and topics; this approach helps people feel heard and develop their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete steps to try different responses and habits.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kia works with each person to identify which methods match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks in and adapts the plan as therapy progresses so sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper discussion. Phone sessions can be useful when internet bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging are handy for shorter check-ins, ongoing support, or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options give flexibility to schedule around work, travel, or family obligations while maintaining consistent therapeutic work.
