About Kimberly
She works in a direct, practical way that aims to make sessions feel useful from the start. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on steps a person can try between meetings. Kimberly blends several approaches so sessions match each person’s needs and goals.
Kimberly holds a Master of Arts in Mental Health, School Counseling and Substance Use Counseling from Wayne State University. She has about 13 years of experience as an LPC and has worked in community mental health, substance use facilities, schools, refuge settings, integrative clinics, and private practice. That range gives her familiarity with many different life situations.
In sessions she uses mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral techniques, DBT skills, and other methods to help people manage strong emotions and change unhelpful patterns. She also draws on existential ideas when people want to look at meaning and values in life.
People can expect a nonjudgmental space where their identity and beliefs are respected. Kimberly aims to listen carefully and create a plan that fits each person’s daily life and responsibilities.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small concrete steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and testing small changes to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience, with the therapist offering active listening and support so people feel heard and can explore choices at their own pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as priorities and circumstances evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking since specific formats were not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and letting people meet from a location that reduces distractions. Licensed professionals can use a mix of conversation, skill teaching, and between-session exercises that translate well to remote work, helping people practice coping strategies in everyday situations.
