Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She works with clients to set goals and check progress each week. This often involves small tasks between sessions to practice new skills in everyday life.
Kimberly has broad experience across mood, stress, and behavior concerns. She also addresses issues related to discrimination, military-related stress, and women’s concerns as they arise in therapy. The emphasis is on workable strategies rather than long explanations.

How CBT is used in online sessions and what to expect
CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sessions involve spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative ways of thinking and acting. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and addictive behaviors.CBT work typically includes setting clear goals and trying small tasks between meetings. These homework tasks are practical steps to practice new skills in day-to-day life, such as tracking moods, testing a new coping strategy, or changing routine behaviors that contribute to stress.
Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, then adjust methods over time. Clients and the therapist check progress and change tactics if something is not helping.
