Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kimberly integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness therapy to meet a range of needs. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening and collaboration so clients feel heard while exploring goals, identity and relationships. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, addictions and coping with life changes. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and stress-management practices that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation, which is helpful for trauma, grief and everyday stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kimberly works with each person to assess needs, preferences and goals, then adapts techniques from these approaches to create a personalized plan that fits the client’s situation.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work or family commitments, to maintain continuity during life transitions, and to access care from different locations, including international settings. The combination of proven therapeutic methods and flexible delivery helps licensed professionals tailor support that fits each client’s life.
