Kevin Stegeman
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Clients can expect a welcoming, structured conversation focused on understanding what brings them to therapy and what they hope to gain from the process. I take time to learn about current challenges, relevant history, and any symptoms or stressors such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, or life transitions. We also begin identifying clear, collaborative goals so therapy has direction and purpose from the start. I typically introduce an initial treatment plan and may begin discussing early coping strategies or skills that can provide immediate support. My goal for the first session is to help clients feel heard, establish a sense of direction, and leave with a clearer understanding of how we will work together moving forward.

Peter Klein
Therapist, BABCP Accredited, BACP Registered Member
I am a fully accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist (BABCP) based in Richmond, London, offering both face-to-face and online therapy. I have over 13 years of experience helping people overcome difficulties including anxiety, OCD, stress, low self-esteem, perfectionism and depression.
My approach is tailored to each individual. I believe therapy works best when we develop a clear understanding of your difficulties together and create a practical plan for meaningful change. I use evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), including the UCL Case Formulation Model, alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy and Schema Therapy.
I previously worked as a CBT therapist at the world famous Priory Hospital in Roehampton, where I created and delivered psychological treatment programmes, and I have been working in private practice since 2012.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, dealing with self-criticism or wanting to develop greater confidence and resilience, therapy can help you understand yourself and create lasting change.
I offer confidential online therapy sessions and therapy in Richmond, London.
14 Years Experience
Online in Independence, MO
Independence is a Kansas City suburb with a distinctive character rooted in its historical significance as the starting point of the Oregon and Santa Fe Trails and as the world headquarters of the Community of Christ—a significant Latter Day Saint denomination—as well as being the hometown of President Harry S. Truman, a combination that gives the city a particular civic identity unusual for a suburb of its size. The religious community anchored by the Community of Christ Temple creates both a strong support network and specific mental health considerations around faith, doubt, and community belonging for those navigating their relationship with the church. Centerpoint Medical Center and the broader Kansas City health system provide behavioral health resources to Independence and surrounding communities. Common therapy concerns include faith and spiritual identity, commuter stress from the Kansas City metro, economic anxiety, family and relationship issues, and the particular dynamics of a community where civic pride and religious heritage are deeply intertwined.
