About Kimberly
Kimberly Williams is a licensed professional counselor with 25 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life changes.
Background and approach
She works with clients facing trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy and sexual concerns including BDSM and kink topics, parenting and blended family issues, addiction, ADHD, and a broad range of interpersonal and emotional struggles. Her practice emphasizes practical skills alongside deeper exploration so clients can manage symptoms while gaining insight into patterns that affect their lives.
Her style balances compassion with structure, offering both evidence-informed techniques and reflective conversation tailored to each person’s needs. Kimberly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach coping strategies and emotional regulation, and incorporates the Gottman Method and existential perspectives when addressing relationship dynamics and life purpose questions.
As an LPC licensed in Texas and Virginia Kimberly blends skill-building, mindfulness, and relationship work to help clients strengthen communication, reduce distress, and pursue clearer goals.
Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Support
Kimberly frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, panic, and coping with life changes. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulsive behaviors. When relationship work is central, elements of the Gottman Method are used to improve communication, manage conflict, and strengthen connection between partners.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kimberly works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and will adapt methods over time so treatment remains focused and relevant. Clients are invited to share what feels most useful and to adjust the plan as progress and life circumstances change.
Online therapy with Kimberly is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to keep continuity of care during busy periods and to access therapeutic support from home or wherever clients are located in Virginia. Licensed professionals can use these options to blend skill-building, reflective work, and relationship-focused interventions in ways that fit each client's life.
