Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kimberly draws on attachment-based work to explore the ways early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust. This approach helps families and young people understand behaviors rooted in disrupted attachment and supports strategies to strengthen caregiving relationships.

She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize the person’s experience, offering a respectful, empathic space where individuals and caregivers lead the pace of change while the therapist helps reflect and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another core element in her work, focusing on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and behavioral challenges.

Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. Kimberly works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adapts methods over time so therapy remains responsive and practical. Online therapy offers added flexibility for families and individuals, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care, and access licensed professionals and therapists from home or other convenient locations.
