How Kimberly’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathic relationship where the client leads the pace and topics. This approach helps people feel heard and understood before moving into practical work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying thoughts and behavior patterns and trying specific, short-term exercises to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then taking actions that match personal values to move life forward.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Kimberly will talk with each person about their goals, what feels most useful, and how techniques fit daily life. Together they decide which strategies to try and adjust them over time based on progress and preference.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and enable participation from different locations. Licensed professionals can use these ways of working to keep therapy practical and focused on real-life changes.
