Approaches for Online Care and Personal Growth



Kimberly commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps clients identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship difficulties. She also integrates psychodynamic ideas that explore how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current emotions and relationships, useful for deeper, longer-standing issues. In addition, a client-centered stance guides sessions by prioritizing the client's perspective and creating an accepting space where people can explore their feelings and goals.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Kimberly works with clients to understand their needs, values, and goals, and together they decide which methods and techniques will be most helpful. This collaborative planning can evolve over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online therapy with Kimberly is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make care more flexible for busy schedules, transportation limits, or changing life demands. Working with licensed professionals in these formats allows clients to receive consistent support and continue therapeutic work from locations that fit their daily lives.
