About Kimberly Mendoza
Taking the first step toward change takes courage, and Kimberly Mendoza acknowledges that bravery while offering a steady, curious presence to guide the way. She believes clients are the foremost experts on their own lives and approaches each person with a searching, inquisitive stance that helps uncover the clues already inside them.
Kimberly brings extensive life experience to her work and has engaged in her own counseling journey, which informs her empathy and understanding. She began studying psychology and neuroscience at age 17 and has continued to expand her clinical training to build individualized treatment plans. Her graduate degree is from Rollins College in Florida, a small liberal arts school she selected for its counselor education program.
Her client base has ranged from ages 17 to 77, with many people seeking support for depression, anxiety, or life transitions. Kimberly emphasizes collaborative exploration and tailors therapeutic strategies to each person’s needs, drawing on a range of clinical approaches and real-world insight. She offers 24/7 text messaging between sessions but finds that voice or video communication most effectively conveys empathy, and therefore does not provide chat sessions. Kimberly is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - practicing in Florida and committed to helping clients find greater clarity and well-being.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and learn practical skills to accept difficult feelings while taking action toward a more meaningful life. It is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in close relationships and explores how early attachment experiences shape current relationship dynamics and emotional responses - useful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and family of origin work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and improve mood and functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kimberly works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. Together they evaluate what is helping and adapt the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to engage from home or between commitments. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit therapy into a busy schedule, and use the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
