She focuses on trauma-related concerns while also helping people manage anxiety, depression, and stress.

Background and approach

Kimberley uses clear, plain language and offers tools that fit into a person's routine. She draws from therapies that address memories and beliefs tied to painful events and from structured methods that target thinking and behavior. That mix can help with phobias, panic attacks, mood disorders, and the effects of past trauma.

Kimberley also helps with issues such as grief, relationship strain, and challenges at work. Kimberley values collaboration and pacing that respects each person's readiness. She encourages self-compassion and helps people notice strengths they already have.

Over time the work focuses on small changes that add up to steadier coping. Practical options include messaging, live video, phone, or chat sessions. Messages can be used between appointments for support or tools, while live sessions are scheduled by appointment.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Kimberley commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). CBT focuses on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, phobias, panic, and mood concerns. EMDR works with upsetting memories and the emotions tied to them, helping people process traumatic events and reduce distress.

Choosing a method is a team effort. Kimberley will talk with each person about goals and symptoms, then suggest approaches that match those needs. She reviews progress together and adjusts the plan as needed so the work stays relevant and manageable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for guided exercises and EMDR-related work. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is low or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, sharing tools, or working through skills between scheduled sessions. These options add flexibility for fitting therapy into a busy life.
