About Kenneth
Kenneth Markovic is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience. He focuses on practical strategies to manage strong emotions and everyday stress. Parents and adults will find a calm, direct approach to problems such as anger and anxiety.
Kenneth draws on therapies that emphasize relationships and present-day coping. He uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past connections shape current reactions. He pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
Sessions are centered on the person in front of him. He listens first, then helps build skills that people can try between meetings. Work may include emotion regulation, communication practice, and steps to reduce substance-related harm.
His background includes case management, clinical therapy, and school social work in Illinois. He has worked with clients facing addiction, grief, trauma, brain injury, body image concerns, and life transitions. He has also supported people recovering from involvement in toxic groups such as gangs or cults.
Kenneth offers straightforward coaching for parents managing stress and for adults struggling with low self-esteem or relationship problems. He believes people bring strengths to therapy and that small changes add up. The goal is clearer thinking, fewer explosive moments, and better day-to-day functioning.

Approach-driven care available online
Kenneth commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people manage strong emotions and patterns that keep repeating. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape reactions now and helps people notice triggers and rebuild safer ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anger, anxiety, or substance-related problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kenneth will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and day-to-day needs. He checks in about what helps and adjusts the plan as therapy moves forward so people feel the work fits them.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different routines. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging make it possible to get support between sessions or to work through quick coping strategies without scheduling a full call.
