About Kimberly

She brings 37 years of clinical experience and a steady, practical approach to conversations about coping, parenting, work, and mood concerns.

Background and approach
Kimberly combines straightforward problem-solving with attention to strong emotions and past hurts. Her work draws on client-centered methods that keep the person’s goals in charge of the plan. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and Mindfulness exercises to build calm and focus.
Solution-focused techniques help set clear, achievable goals and track progress between meetings. Kimberly also brings trauma-focused ideas when past events are affecting current safety, sleep, or relationships. She helps people manage symptoms and build routines that improve sleep, reduce anger, and lift motivation.
Practical coping skills are mixed with space to process painful memories when needed. Clients can expect a collaborative tone and a gradual pace. Kimberly explains options in plain language and adjusts the plan as needs change.
She works from Florida and offers sessions in English for people in different regions, including international clients.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s priorities. The therapist creates space for the client to set goals and guides discussions toward the changes the client wants to see. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through concrete exercises and short homework tasks; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust the plan as progress or new needs appear. Clients can expect a step-by-step approach that balances problem-solving with emotional processing.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different rhythms of life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit short check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing brief reflections between appointments. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into work, travel, and caregiving routines.
