Remote care that blends skills and processing
Kimberly adapts several established therapeutic methods to online formats. She uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and collaborative goal setting. Dialectical behavior therapy is offered for building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills, with real time coaching during sessions where useful.For trauma processing, Kimberly lists eye movement desensitization and reprocessing as part of her toolkit. That approach is presented with attention to pacing and stabilization and can be combined with attachment-based or emotionally focused work to address relational patterns and core emotional needs. Client-centered principles guide the overall pace and focus, with an emphasis on meeting each person where they are.
Online appointments are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Prospective clients who prefer a collaborative, skills-informed approach alongside trauma-sensitive processing may find this combination of methods a good fit.
