How Kimberly’s approaches translate to online therapy
Kimberly uses several evidence-based techniques in her work. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and breathing skills that can lower stress and help with emotion regulation. She also incorporates narrative-based work to help people reframe difficult experiences and find meaning after trauma.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kimberly will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and pace. Together they review what helps and adjust techniques over time so therapy feels useful and relevant.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow consistent check-ins, and reduce travel time. Some approaches, like brief mindfulness practices or cognitive work, adapt well to remote sessions and can be used between meetings to reinforce progress.
