Kimberlee Thomas , LPC

Kimberlee Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma who brings more than 31 years of experience helping people reframe how they think about and live through difficult issues. She listens carefully and prioritizes being sure each person feels heard while working collaboratively to identify practical steps toward greater well-being. Her clinical work spans a wide age range - clients from 2 to 103 - and includes concerns such as trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship and family struggles, parenting at multiple life stages, severe mental illness, substance use, medical and aging issues, end-of-life concerns, and grief and loss. In recent years she has devoted focused study to recovery from narcissistic abuse and integrates those methods into her practice.

Her professional background includes both individual and group counseling across many settings - in-office practice, private homes, group homes, nursing homes, inpatient psychiatric units, community mental health programs including work with federal probation and parole and drug and alcohol services, Native American health programs, foster care families, employee assistance programs, and several years of online counseling. She combines a holistic, present-focused orientation with attention to how past experiences and future hopes or fears influence current life.

Kimberlee holds a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a developmental emphasis and a sociology minor, and an Associate of Science Degree in Psychology. As an LPC - a licensed professional counselor trained to assess and treat emotional and behavioral concerns - she uses practical techniques such as mindfulness, deep breathing, meditation, clients’ spiritual resources, and health goals alongside cognitive behavioral strategies, rational emotive methods, transactional analysis, EMDR, and standardized inventories. Sessions emphasize clients’ goals, strengths, and usable skills so each appointment moves toward meaningful change. She keeps regular hours Monday through Friday, 7:45am to 4:15pm CDT, and aims to help people leave each session feeling they have gained something toward their well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Kimberlee Thomas draws from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s unique experience and offering empathic support so clients can explore their values, choices, and personal strengths - it often helps with relationship issues, self-esteem, and life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and reshape unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday struggles. She also integrates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) when appropriate - a structured approach used to process distressing memories and trauma symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kimberlee works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then tailors interventions and adjusts strategies over time to find what fits best for that individual.

Online therapy with Kimberlee is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and life demands. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home, manage ongoing care between appointments, and maintain continuity when life circumstances change, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists to move toward your goals.
