Kimberly is trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, the MATCH modular approach for treating children with anxiety, depression, trauma, and conduct issues, Multi-Systemic Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. These trainings inform a flexible, skills-oriented practice that adapts to each person or family she sees.

Kimberly centers treatment on the individual client and their immediate needs as well as longer-term goals. She prioritizes addressing pressing stressors that can derail progress so clients can refocus on growth and healing. Seeking therapy is framed as a courageous step, and Kimberly aims to guide people through their current life situation toward greater wellbeing in the areas that brought them to therapy, including depression, anxiety, self-esteem, anger, adoption and foster care concerns, trauma and PTSD, and communication challenges.

Approaches Used in Online Therapy and What They Offer

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's own experience and strengths. The therapist offers empathic listening and collaboration, helping people explore feelings and make choices that align with their values; it is useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behavior. It includes practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress and is often goal-oriented and structured to produce measurable progress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and patterns of reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kimberly collaborates with clients to determine what methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques as progress unfolds to ensure the plan stays relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into a busy life, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity during changing circumstances. These options allow therapists to provide consistent support in ways that match a client's schedule and communication style.
