About Kimberly

Kimberly Hauser is a licensed independent social worker who helps adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She uses a practical, person-focused style that centers on curiosity and collaboration. Sessions are aimed at helping people feel more confident and steady amid transitions and tough decisions.

Her work often addresses relationship strain, low self-esteem, parenting challenges, burnout, and grief. She also supports people dealing with trauma, anger, career shifts, ADHD, and codependency concerns. Many clients come when life feels uncertain and they want clearer steps forward.

Kimberly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered and solution-focused methods. That means she helps people spot unhelpful patterns, try small changes, and build skills that fit daily life. She avoids one-size-fits-all answers and tailors plans to each person's goals.

With 14 years in clinical practice as an Ohio LISW - Licensed Independent Social Worker - she pairs clinical experience with a straightforward, caring approach. Sessions emphasize practical tools alongside reflection so progress feels useful and realistic.

People working with Kimberly can expect a collaborative conversation that balances support and action. The aim is not only to manage symptoms but to regain direction, repair strained relationships, and handle life’s next steps with more confidence.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person most needs. It helps people feel heard and encourages personal insight, which can ease anxiety and low self-worth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and manage mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She aims to combine supportive listening with hands-on strategies so clients leave with clear, usable steps.

Confirm the specific session options before booking so you know how therapy will be delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people choose a quieter space or avoid long commutes, which helps keep progress consistent while juggling work, parenting, or other commitments.
