About Ken

Ken McCauley is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah. He draws on 14 years as a practicing therapist and decades of broader human services experience to help people manage stress, anger, addiction, depression, anxiety, and relationship concerns. He speaks English and works with adults facing a range of life challenges.

He has long experience in public human services, including work related to child abuse, adoption, and foster care.

Background and approach

Much of his clinical work has been in community mental health and outpatient settings supporting people dealing with substance use, court-ordered treatment, and everyday struggles like housing or employment instability. That background informs a practical approach to therapy. Ken listens first.

He focuses on strengths people already have and uses those strengths to set achievable goals. His methods include attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral principles, dialectical behavior techniques, and EMDR. He explains how thoughts influence actions and helps people try new patterns.

Sessions typically focus on skills and steps that make daily life easier. He helps people address anger, impulsivity, grief, parenting stress, intimacy concerns, and addiction-related problems. He also supports people coping with identity and attachment issues, guilt, shame, and isolation.

Ken describes therapy as a collaborative journey. He works with each person to identify what matters to them and to build realistic strategies. To begin, visitors use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Ken uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and actions. CBT focuses on practical steps and small experiments that can reduce anxiety, anger, and depressive patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating. This can be useful for intimacy problems, abandonment worries, and attachment issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ken treats the choice as collaborative and will help clients try methods that match their needs and goals. He listens to priorities and adjusts strategies based on what is helpful in real life.

If you are interested in online sessions, please confirm the specific session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules require, and let people use tools like guided exercises and skill practice between meetings. Licensed professionals often combine talk work with behavioral assignments so progress can continue between sessions. Confirm current session options when you schedule to ensure they match your routine and preferences.
