About Kidd

Dr. Kidd Colt brings 24 years of clinical experience to his practice as an LMHC based in Florida.

Background and approach

He trained in counseling and psychology, and across his career has focused on mood disorders, ADHD, substance-related concerns, stress management, grief, and relationship difficulties. His background includes long-term work in community treatment settings where he developed a practical, solution-oriented style.

Dr. Colt emphasizes a warm, empathic approach that centers the client's perspective while helping them build coping skills and clarify goals.

He often blends evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral methods with client-centered and mindfulness practices to address anxiety, depression, compulsive patterns, and challenges with self-esteem or life transitions. Sessions can be goal-focused and brief when appropriate, or more exploratory depending on a person's needs and preferences.

Available to adults in Florida, he offers a flexible schedule and uses multiple remote session formats to fit different lifestyles. Prospective clients start by completing a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule according to his availability.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, obsessions, and sleep or eating difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist offers empathy and support while clients lead the pace and goals of work. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and acceptance skills that can reduce reactivity and improve coping with stress, trauma symptoms, and mood fluctuations.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to review concerns, preferences, and goals and then tailor a blend of methods that best fits the situation. That collaborative exploration may include trying short-term skill-building or moving into more exploratory work depending on what proves most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and different life circumstances. These formats allow for consistent care when in-person visits are difficult, and they support ongoing skill practice and regular check-ins between appointments.
