Kimberley Haley , LMHC

Kimberley Haley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts who brings a compassionate, problem-focused approach to therapy. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Clinical Psychology from McGill University in Montreal in 1993 and completed a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling at the University of Massachusetts Boston in 2001. With two decades of clinical experience, she has worked extensively with people affected by abuse and trauma and has developed particular expertise in treating anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and depression.

Her practice also addresses grief and loss, low self-esteem, relationship and marital concerns, the stresses of divorce and co-parenting, and challenges faced by caregivers of family members with intellectual or other disabilities. Drawing on a background that includes behaviorist techniques, she is comfortable supporting caregivers and families who navigate the complexities of disability and long-term care.

Clinically, Kimberley emphasizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - explaining patterns of thought and behavior and developing practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She aims to create a nonjudgmental, supportive environment where clients can identify goals and work through clear, actionable steps toward greater well-being. Kimberley focuses on collaborative planning and skill-building so clients can move toward more stable, purposeful lives.

Approaches and Online Care with Kimberley Haley

Kimberley Haley draws from evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, helping clients manage intense emotions and improve relationships. Mindfulness Therapy promotes present-moment awareness and acceptance strategies that can reduce rumination and support stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kimberley works collaboratively with clients to assess goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adjusting methods over time so the work aligns with each person's priorities and pace.

Online therapy offers flexibility to fit treatment into busy lives. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, clients can access consistent care from licensed professionals without commuting, maintain continuity during life transitions, and choose the communication format that feels most comfortable for them. These options make it easier to schedule sessions, practice skills between appointments, and keep therapy integrated into daily routines.
