More about Kimberly

  • More than 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia since 2011. I primarily employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and a solution-focused, goal-oriented approach, though my expertise spans various therapeutic methods. If you’re seeking support during challenging times and find that talking helps, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can navigate your concerns and work toward meaningful solutions. Let’s embark on this journey of healing and growth together.

In today's world, couples often encounter significant relationship challenges. While I don't provide couples therapy, I specialize in helping individuals who are struggling with various aspects of their relationships. I take great satisfaction in empowering my clients to communicate their desires and needs effectively, enabling them to make informed decisions about their relationships.

Anxiety is an experience that many people face, often manifesting as intrusive thoughts or negative self-talk that can significantly disrupt happiness and productivity. I employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other effective strategies to help you uncover the root causes of your anxiety and negative thought patterns. Together, we will create a customized plan that equips you to manage anxiety and cultivate a more positive mindset.

I have a strong commitment to helping college students as they navigate the complexities of campus life, including friendships, relationships, academic challenges, and mental health concerns. Let's work together to enhance your well-being and build a fulfilling life.

I find particular joy in working with Christians, providing support that harmonizes talk therapy with faith-based interventions. Whether you're navigating mental health or relationship issues, we'll work on a plan together to help you live a more fulfilling life.

*** Important: ***

If you need to unpack/work on significant trauma, you'll want to choose a therapist on the platform who has more training in trauma.
