About Kimberlee Thomas
Kimberlee Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 31 years of experience helping people find new perspectives and greater well-being. She listens attentively and prioritizes making sure each person feels heard while working to uncover practical ways to feel better and, when possible, rediscover joy. Her clinical work spans the lifespan, supporting clients from age 2 through 103 with concerns that include trauma, career challenges, family and parenting issues, severe mental illness, marital difficulties, depression and anxiety, substance use, sexual health, medical concerns, aging and caregiving, end of life issues, and grief and loss.
In recent years she has focused on recovery from narcissistic abuse, spending six years studying and applying targeted treatment methods to assist in healing from that experience. Her professional background includes individual and group counseling delivered in a wide range of settings - office-based practice, private homes, group homes, nursing homes, inpatient psychiatric units, community mental health programs, groups connected to federal probation and parole and substance use services, Native American health settings, foster care families, and employee assistance programs - and she brings four years of consistent online counseling experience to her work.
Her academic preparation includes a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a developmental emphasis and a minor in Sociology, and an Associate of Science in Psychology. Kimberlee takes a holistic, here-and-now approach that honors how past experiences and future hopes or fears shape present life. When appropriate she teaches mindfulness practices, breathing and meditation exercises, and integrates clients own spirituality, social supports, thought patterns, and health goals into treatment. She uses cognitive behavioral methods, Rational Emotive techniques, Transactional Analysis, EMDR, and various inventories in a pragmatic way to build on strengths and address weaker areas. Sessions focus on client goals, and she helps clarify and track progress so people leave each meeting feeling they have moved forward. She is available Monday through Friday from 7:45am to 4:15pm CDT.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Kimberlee Thomas integrates several evidence-informed approaches to support clients in an online setting. Client-centered therapy focuses on a respectful, empathetic relationship in which the therapist follows the client's lead, helping people explore their values, increase self-understanding, and build confidence in their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical strategies for managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress by changing thoughts and actions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured method used to process distressing memories and trauma symptoms, which can reduce the intensity of painful recollections and improve day-to-day functioning.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Kimberlee works with each person to match interventions to their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. Her online experience allows for continuity of care while tailoring methods to what works best for the individual.
Online therapy with Kimberlee can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, limited mobility, or caregivers managing multiple responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions and apply therapeutic work in real life between meetings, while enabling licensed professionals to provide consistent support across different settings.
