More about Kimberley
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LCPC, LPC, LPCC
As a licensed therapist in Virginia, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes - helping clients address depression, anxiety, life transitions, and mood-related challenges with compassion and expertise.
I bring a deep commitment to understanding each person's unique journey, with a particular focus on women's experiences, communication dynamics, and personal growth. My approach honors individual strengths while providing supportive guidance through periods of isolation, self-doubt, and transformative life changes.
Drawing from over a decade of clinical experience, I create a warm, affirming therapeutic space where clients can explore their inner world, develop resilience, and reconnect with their sense of purpose. I'm dedicated to supporting individuals as they cultivate self-love, work through challenging emotions, and discover more meaningful ways of engaging with themselves and others.
My practice is rooted in cultural responsiveness, empathy, and a genuine belief in each person's capacity for healing and personal transformation.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Kimberly is very insightful about my particular situation, and gives me great advice on how to improve and manage my lifestyle and relationship with my other half.
Great communicator and responds effectively has active goals that our achievable
She really has a knack for showing me my blind spots!
I like my therapist and all of her insight.. She listens and gives me the tools I need to better myself with what I’m dealing with.
Kim is an AMAZING therapist, she makes the session feel like a chat with a friend and not a therapy session! I appreciate her listening ear and the fact that her advice is always spot on.
Very approachable and offers interventions that a appropriate. Reaches out to make sure I’m okay and I appreciate that.
Provides great feedback, understanding, and steps to help achieve goals
Kimberly is professional, friendly and understanding. She brightens your day and makes you feel ready to take on the world.
Kimberly is a wonderful and delightful energy. She gives me an opportunity to see and respond to things in a way that is outside of my norm but more appropriate to receive a better result (which was my main goal). She also checks in and fully provides the space for me to get out the things that ping in the back of my mind. I feel heard, I feel seen, I feel understood, and I feel opportunity for growth. She’s amazing!
Great
Kimberley is a genuinely sweet, kind and thoughtful person. She empowers you with the tools necessary to take control of your healing process. In just two weeks, I feel much better and more well-equipped to handle my issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a gentle but sturdy hand to guide you through therapy.
