About Kimberly
Kimberly Finnie is a licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience helping people manage stress and anxiety. She focuses on practical support for depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and life changes.

Kimberly keeps sessions centered on what a person needs most right now. She offers calm, direct guidance for managing overwhelm and for coping with big transitions like separation or workplace changes.
Background and approach
She also helps people address lingering effects from past trauma and symptoms such as dissociation or mood shifts. Her background includes licenses in Maine and New Jersey as a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW. That experience informs a steady, experienced approach to common and complex concerns.
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape sessions around each person's goals. In practical terms Kimberly helps clients with communication problems, family of origin issues, blended family challenges, and feelings like guilt, shame, and low self-worth. She also supports people facing social anxiety, seasonal mood changes, and questions about life purpose.
Sessions are offered in English and Kimberly accepts international clients. She provides multiple online formats to fit different needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.
Evidence-based approaches for online care
Kimberly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on both coping skills and understanding how past events affect current feelings. One common approach involves teaching practical coping strategies for anxiety and stress, such as breath work, grounding, and activity planning to reduce overwhelm and improve daily routines. Another approach emphasizes working through trauma-related symptoms by helping people notice triggers, manage dissociation, and build gradual tolerance to difficult memories and sensations.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kimberly will work with each person to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This collaborative process ensures methods match the client's needs, pace, and preferences rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between meetings, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy into a busy life and keep consistent progress.
