About Kimberly
Kimberly Hauser is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) in Ohio who focuses on practical, down-to-earth therapy. She centers sessions on collaboration and clear goals so people can tackle stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, and life changes. Her approach aims to help clients find steady ground and clearer next steps.
Kimberly often works with people facing depression, low self-esteem, burnout, and relationship strain. She helps clients spot unhelpful patterns and try small changes that add up.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversation-based and goal oriented, not lecture style. Her clinical work draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused strategies to build coping skills. Kimberly also uses client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in each person’s priorities.
She describes therapy as a partnership where the client’s goals guide the plan. With 14 years of experience, Kimberly brings practical tools and steady support to sessions. That background informs her problem-solving focus and ability to adapt techniques to everyday life.
She aims to leave people with usable skills, not just insight. People seeking help with parenting questions may find her straightforward coaching-style support useful. She also addresses issues like grief, trauma, anger, ADHD, career transitions, and communication problems.
Sessions are offered in English and are arranged around what works for the individual.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Kimberly uses client-centered methods that keep the client’s priorities at the center of each session. This approach means sessions focus on what matters most to the person and adapt to their pace and goals. It helps when someone needs a listening space to sort priorities and decide next steps.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. CBT offers straightforward tools for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress by changing unhelpful thinking and testing small behavioral changes. These techniques are practical and work well in regular online meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kimberly will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then tailor methods to each person. That collaborative planning can shift over time as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth conversations and interactive skill work. Phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or work better when bandwidth is limited. Text and live chat are useful for short updates, homework, or checking in between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
