Kimberly Boogaerts , LPC

Kimberly Boogaerts is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arkansas who works with children, teens, and adults on a range of mental health and behavioral concerns. She brings clinical experience across multiple settings and addresses issues such as anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, stress, parenting challenges, anger, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms.

Her academic background includes a first degree in elementary education with a minor in early childhood, followed by a master’s degree that qualified her as an LPC in Texas. That combination of educational training and varied clinical experience informs a flexible approach to care that meets clients where they are and respects different developmental stages and family contexts.

Her therapeutic style is informed by Gestalt therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and structural systems work. She focuses on collaboratively designing treatment plans targeted to each person’s goals - whether those goals emphasize deeper insight and personal growth or practical symptom relief and improved functioning. Throughout treatment she aims to support and empower clients as they pursue a more fulfilling life.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and learn practical strategies to change reactions and behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns and focuses on skills that can be practiced between sessions.

Mindfulness-based approaches emphasize present-moment awareness and techniques for managing emotional reactivity. These practices can support clients dealing with anxiety, rumination, and anger by improving tolerance of difficult feelings and strengthening attention.

Gestalt-influenced work centers on awareness, personal responsibility, and the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and bodily experience. It is useful for clients seeking greater insight into patterns that affect relationships and day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kimberly Boogaerts collaborates with each client to select and adapt techniques based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, accessible care and let clients choose the mode of communication that feels most comfortable for them.
