About Kimberly

Approaches to Meaningful Change and Online Care
Kimberly integrates Existential therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in ways that help people clarify what matters most and take committed steps to live by those values. Existential work focuses on questions of meaning, choice, and responsibility, which can help when someone feels empty or stuck. ACT uses practical exercises to accept difficult feelings and commit to small actions that move life in a chosen direction.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to understand how early relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps people recognize how attachment styles affect intimacy, communication, and trust, and then practice healthier ways of relating. Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work together with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video and phone allow deeper conversational work and can be useful for practicing skills in real time. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, tracking progress between sessions, or when someone prefers typing. These options give flexibility for appointments around work, travel, or other commitments.
