About Kimberly

Kimberly Taylor is a licensed professional counselor with a focus on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and codependency. She helps people facing life changes, compassion fatigue, addictions, and grief. Sessions also address parenting concerns, communication problems, and challenges linked to trauma and abuse.

Kimberly works in a straightforward, compassionate way. She blends common-sense talk with practical tools so people can use them between sessions. Her background includes work in community mental health, substance use facilities, schools, refugee services, integrative health clinics, and private practice.

She holds a Master of Arts degree in Mental Health, School Counseling and Substance Use Counseling from Wayne State University and a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and Secondary Teaching from the University of Michigan. Kimberly has 13 years of experience as an LPC and brings perspectives from many settings into each session.

Her approach mixes several methods to fit a person’s needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, dialectical skills, and client-centered listening. Mindfulness and trauma-focused practices also appear when they suit the goals at hand.

People describe working with her as practical and hopeful. Sessions aim to sort priorities, build coping skills, and shift unhelpful patterns like codependency and avoidance. Kimberly encourages steady steps forward rather than quick fixes.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. It focuses on values and taking small steps toward a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches skills for changing unhelpful patterns and behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and respected so people can find their own solutions at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals and concerns, then suggest which methods to try first. Together they check in and adjust the plan based on what is working and what feels useful.

Confirm the available session options before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten check-ins on workdays, or avoid travel time. Many people find remote sessions help maintain consistency while using the same therapeutic tools they would get in person.
