Dr. Kinsey is great at what he does. He is very professional, timely and available for his patients. In session, he does a great job if listening and responding concisely with what you need to hear. I felt like he’d read that sometimes I just needed to ramble and he’d allow that. Other times, he’d ask questions to help me get to it. Beyond that, I found him to be a genuine person that I quickly developed an appreciation for.

I sought Dr. Kinsey after getting the sense that something was lacking from the relationship with my prior therapist - so happy to have made that switch. Dr. Kinsey employs truly objective commentary which uncovers new ways of looking at the information I present to him every session. I find the most value in his helping me to "unknow" myself and most of our work involves editing the scripts I've been telling myself for so long. He is incredibly kind and thoughtful in his approach which gives me a sense of comfort and trust I haven't found in anyone in a long time. I can definitively say I feel more at peace since we started our relationship. He holds nothing back too - I've already referred him to people in my social circle and will continue to do so. I'm so glad I found him!

More about Dr. Michael Kinsey, PhD
During this time, Williamsburg Therapy Group is offering teletherapy options. Dr. Michael Kinsey is a licensed psychologist at the Williamsburg Therapy Group who provides psychotherapy to adults, couples, and children. He is skilled at quickly identifying most immediate and concerning areas of distress in addition to outlining and providing short and long-term options for treatment.
Dr. Kinsey has extensive experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, psychosis, as well as long-standing difficulties in relationships with self and others. He has extensive training in psychoanalysis/psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, existential psychotherapy, and attachment-based interventions.
Dr. Kinsey brings to Williamsburg Therapy Group a lifelong interest in the mind and a variety of methods to elicit its secrets. He views psychotherapy as an opportunity to help clients to encounter their own potential for courage, honesty, and heroism as they face previously unknown levels of crisis, conflict, and chaos. Dr. Kinsey draws upon linguistics/etymology, metaphor, myth, literature, symbols, and art, to help his clients see their challenges from multiple perspectives and through a variety of lenses. In working with Dr. Kinsey, clients are invited to look inward and see climactic tension in the mundane, and the pedestrian in forbidden fantasy. Through playful, humorous, honest, and respectful, dialogue, Dr. Kinsey works with clients to discover how nonsensical symptoms make sense, and how suffering points them in the direction of growth.

I’ve worked with Dr. Kinsey for several years (our sessions are presently on hiatus due to coronavirus). I’ve found him to be a deeply empathetic, wise, and uniquely helpful therapist. His ability to help work through complex problems, be a calm and encouraging sounding board, and highlight & challenge persistently negative thought patterns have been continually helpful. I feel I’ve grown immensely through our conversations together and have been empowered to make positive changes. Highly, highly recommend.

Dr. Kinsey is fantastic! My partner and I were experiencing some communication issues, and Dr. Kinsey gave us actionable techniques to use in our very first visit. He is very candid, kind, and perceptive - he was quick to pick up on things that we ourselves hadn't noticed before. Highly recommend!
