About Kimberly
Kimberly Hauser is a licensed independent social worker in Ohio who helps adults manage anxiety, stress, and life changes. She uses straightforward conversation and practical tools so people can feel steadier and make clearer decisions. Sessions focus on what matters most to each person and move at a realistic pace.
She often supports people facing career transitions, relationship strain, grief, burnout, or shifts in identity after separation or loss. She also addresses parenting concerns, attention differences, and patterns like codependency or communication problems.
Background and approach
The work tends to be goal-oriented and rooted in everyday needs. Her approach draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means sessions look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect, and then build small, practical changes.
She blends those ideas with solution-focused steps to help people try things between meetings. Kimberly has 14 years of clinical experience. She brings that background to straightforward planning, skill practice, and steady feedback.
The focus is on clear, usable strategies rather than long, abstract talk. People who come to her often want help with anxiety, low self-esteem, parenting stress, grief, or the effects of trauma and abuse. She works with each person to set priorities and track progress over time.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and understanding the client's experience. In sessions the therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them name feelings and goals. This approach is useful for people who want a space to be heard and to clarify what matters next.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. Sessions often include simple exercises and small experiments to try between meetings. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on practical ways to change unhelpful patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. If something isn't helping, they'll adjust the plan together and try new strategies.
Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth sessions and skill practice, while phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can be a convenient way to share brief updates, get support between sessions, or carry out short coaching-style check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
