Kimberly Williams , LCSW

Kimberly Williams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a mental health clinician qualified to provide clinical therapy, who earned her master’s degree with a specialization in Children, Youth and Families from Louisiana State University. With nine years of professional experience, she brings a calm, down-to-earth presence and an open-minded, non-judgmental style to therapeutic work. She has worked with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, parenting and blended family dynamics, grief, sleep difficulties, bipolar disorder, anger, self-esteem struggles, and coping with life changes. Her additional focus areas include body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, impulsivity, infidelity, financial stress, narcissism, self-love, and challenges common to young adults.

Her clinical approach centers on a client-centered, strengths-based orientation paired with cognitive behavioral strategies; she also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused techniques when appropriate. She aims to be positive, honest, and occasionally humorous while remaining realistic and practical about treatment goals. Some have described her as having an "old soul" due to her maturity and ability to relate across diverse experiences. Kimberly tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s specific needs and values, and she leads her work with dignity, respect, and trust.

Outside of her professional role she is a mother of three - a young adult son, a teenage daughter, and a toddler - and she enjoys retail therapy, listening to inspirational messages, and reading self-development books.

Approaches for online therapy and how they help

Client-centered therapy emphasizes the client’s own goals and strengths and creates space for people to lead the direction of sessions. This approach helps when someone needs empathetic support, values-based exploration, or a tailored plan that builds on what is already working in their life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and structured tools. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and increase emotional regulation. It can be helpful for stress, sleep problems, coping with strong emotions, and improving focus.

Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the process. Kimberly will work collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then adapt techniques from these approaches to fit the individual. She and other licensed professionals aim to match methods to what will be most helpful for the person’s circumstances.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and geographical distance. These formats make it easier to integrate therapy into daily life and to maintain consistent contact with a therapist when in-person visits are not convenient.
