LCSW in Mississippi - Anger and Addictions

About Kyle

Kyle Birdwell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Mississippi with eight years of professional experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression. Kyle also supports people facing anger, parenting strain, grief, issues around intimacy and self-esteem, and life transitions.

In sessions he keeps conversation direct and practical. He listens for patterns that fuel repeated anger or conflict and helps people notice what leads to escalation. Kyle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address process addictions, compulsive behaviors, and post-traumatic stress in ways that focus on concrete strategies and clearer thinking.

Kyle pays attention to attachment and control issues when they show up in relationships. He will talk through shame, guilt, jealousy, and infidelity and work on rebuilding trust with steady, step-by-step interventions. He also offers support for mood disorders, OCD symptoms, and the specific challenges of sex and porn addictions.

He describes his approach as respectful and sensitive, shaping conversations and treatment plans around each person’s situation. Sessions tend to focus on skills you can practice between meetings, real-life problem solving, and reducing the patterns that lead to anger or relapse.

To get started Kyle asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and sessions vary in cost depending on location.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Kyle draws on practical, evidence-based techniques to address anger and related issues. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on spotting thought patterns that trigger anger and building alternative responses. These techniques help with anxiety, mood problems, and repetitive behaviors by teaching specific skills you can practice between sessions.

He also uses trauma-informed strategies that include stabilizing techniques and gradual exposure to reduce reactivity tied to past harm. For process addictions and compulsive behaviors, he applies behavioral strategies that break routines and build safer habits through step-by-step planning.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kyle discusses options with each person, reviews what has or hasn’t worked before, and adjusts methods based on the client’s goals and preferences. He frames treatment as testing practical tools together to reduce escalation and improve daily functioning.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter focused check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Talk with Kyle through the matching questionnaire to learn which formats he currently offers and which will best fit your routine.
