About
Kyle W. McEvoy, LMHC, LPC, is a licensed psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, and the founder of a private practice specializing in evidence-based treatment for children, adolescents, adults, and families. He is trained in Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT) and integrates approaches rooted in attachment theory, developmental psychology, and personality theory to address complex emotional and relational difficulties.
Kyle’s clinical expertise centers on the treatment of rejection sensitivity, identity development, interpersonal conflict, and personality dynamics, with a particular focus on mentalization breakdowns and their impact on interpersonal relationships. His work emphasizes enhancing reflective functioning as a pathway toward strengthening a sense of self, regulating affect, and sustaining healthier interpersonal connections.
In addition to his clinical practice, Kyle is a writer, lecturer, and clinical educator. He has written on topics including rejection sensitivity, attachment, and the application of MBT across the lifespan, contributing to the professional literature in ways that translate complex theoretical constructs into practical tools for therapists and patients.
Kyle holds a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and is licensed in New York (LMHC), New Jersey (LPC), and Connecticut (LPC). He provides clinical supervision to post-graduate therapists in training, with a focus on reflective practice, advanced case formulation, and intervention planning. He is also an active member of professional organizations committed to advancing psychotherapy and evidence-based care.
At the heart of his work is the conviction that the ability to mentalize, the capacity to understand behavior in terms of underlying thoughts, feelings, and intentions, is a fundamental to psychological well-being, resilience, and the creation of meaningful human relationships.
