About Kimberly
Kimberly Corts is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 22 years of experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, caregiver strain, and life transitions. Kimberly offers a straightforward, practical style that aims to build skills and solve problems within a short-term framework.
She works collaboratively with each person to mix professional tools and the client’s own values and priorities. Sessions often focus on small, usable changes that add up over time.
Background and approach
Kimberly commonly uses techniques from cognitive behavioral work, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to support progress. Kimberly often helps people dealing with aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness and pain, fertility stress, divorce and separation, and the strain of caregiving. She also supports people facing relationship issues, parenting challenges, anger, career decisions, and questions about life purpose.
Her approach is practical and goal-oriented, aimed at improving day-to-day functioning. She provides short-term therapy generally lasting three to six months for focused skill-building. Kimberly can incorporate a Christian perspective when a client requests it, though that is not her default method.
Her manner is described as calm, approachable, and warm, and she emphasizes a nonjudgmental space. People who choose Kimberly should expect respectful feedback, encouragement, and occasional gentle challenges designed to help them meet their goals. The work centers on collaboration, clear steps, and tools people can use outside sessions.

Online support
Therapy approaches that translate well online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help people facing life transitions, grief, or low motivation by turning values into small, doable actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replace them with clearer, more effective responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and managing mood swings by teaching concrete skills to change reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs, then suggest which methods to try first. That plan is adjusted over time based on what helps most, so therapy stays practical and tailored.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make scheduling easier and reduce travel. Video calls are good for deeper conversations that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text work well for brief updates, homework check-ins, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options create flexibility so therapy can fit into busy lives.
