Kevin Farrell, LCSW

Kevin Farrell, LCSW, offers practical, down-to-earth therapy for adults facing depression and related challenges. He focuses on clear goals and a strong working relationship so people know what to expect. Sessions are collaborative and aim to make everyday life feel more manageable. Kevin brings nearly 20 years of clinical experience and a background that began outside mental health. He left a media career in his mid-30s to earn a Master of Social Work and pursue psychotherapy. That mix of life experience and clinical work informs a straightforward style that many find easy to talk with. In sessions he draws on several approaches rather than a single method. He uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past, cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and existential ideas to address meaning and life choices. He often focuses on solution-oriented steps to improve coping and build resilience. Kevin emphasizes collaboration. He works with each person to set clear goals and checks in regularly to see how therapy is going. He aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental setting where honest conversation can happen and progress is tracked. People reach out to him for a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, grief, and identity or gender concerns. He also addresses career stress, life transitions, and long-term patterns that undermine well-being.
