Background and approach

That variety informs a practical, real-world approach to problem solving. Kimberly draws on techniques from several therapy models to fit each person's needs rather than using a single method. Sessions focus on identifying specific skills and strengths.

She helps people learn coping strategies that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Work in therapy also looks at building a foundation for longer-term changes when clients are ready to tackle deeper issues. Kimberly often blends client-centered conversation with evidence-based tools to help with anger, self-esteem, grief, trauma, intimacy concerns, ADHD, and relationship challenges.

She also supports people with issues such as jealousy, obsessions and compulsions, phobias, and seasonal affective disorder. Her style includes motivational interviewing and mindfulness practices to boost readiness for change and to reduce distress in the moment. People who come to her can expect a collaborative plan that targets practical steps and measurable skills.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and guides sessions toward goals they set. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses step-by-step tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and compulsive patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying and shifting emotional responses to improve how someone relates to themselves and others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to test methods and pick what fits their needs, goals, and comfort. She often combines techniques to match a person’s pace, starting with skill-building and moving toward deeper emotional work when they are ready.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let visual cues guide conversations and longer session work. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, stepwise coaching, and ongoing skill practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, and family obligations.
