Kimberly has 12 years of experience as a Florida psychologist. She holds the credential FL Psychologist PY12058 and a PhD. She also has additional master’s degrees in rehabilitation counseling, applied criminology, and psychology. These degrees shape how she approaches thinking, behavior, and recovery.

In sessions she focuses on what matters most to each person. She uses approaches that help people name feelings, change unhelpful habits, and rebuild close connections. She works through relationship and attachment concerns, addiction-related struggles, grief, sleep problems, anger, and career challenges.

Her work blends practical strategies and conversation. For some problems she uses cognitive-behavioral methods to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new routines. For relationship or attachment concerns she helps people understand patterns and try different ways of connecting.

People who choose Kimberly often want clear goals and a map for change. She welcomes international clients and offers sessions from her Florida practice. To begin, she asks clients to share their priorities so therapy can focus on the most important next steps.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small steps toward a life they value. It focuses on accepting difficult feelings while committing to actions that match what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to change mood and behavior. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and many habit problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people try different ways of relating to reduce conflict and isolation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what fits the client’s needs and preferences. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort level.

The biography does not list specific session delivery options, so confirm available formats before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into busy days, allows shorter check-ins when needed, and makes it easier to keep appointments across time zones. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and relationship-focused work for remote sessions when appropriate.
