About Kimberly
Kimberly Taylor is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 13 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, grief, and addiction. Her approach is practical and compassionate, and she aims to make therapy feel straightforward and approachable for busy parents.
She blends several evidence-informed approaches to meet each person's needs. Sessions may include exercises to notice thoughts and feelings, skill-building for managing strong emotions, and conversations that clarify values and goals.
Background and approach
Kimberly leans on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered methods to guide the process. Her background includes work across community mental health, substance use settings, schools, refugee services, integrative health clinics, and independent practice. That variety shaped a flexible style that fits different life situations and cultural backgrounds.
She also holds a Master of Arts in Counseling from Wayne State University and a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and Secondary Teaching from the University of Michigan. Kimberly likes to create a tailored plan rather than use a one-size-fits-all method. She listens first, then tries small, practical steps clients can use right away.
Over time those steps build clearer routines, steadier moods, and better day-to-day coping. Sessions are offered in English and Kimberly accepts international clients. She supports people dealing with relationship strains, family stress, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and questions of identity and purpose.

Online approaches that fit busy lives
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for parenting stress, anxiety, and life transitions because it focuses on small, values-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches specific skills to reduce symptoms and build routines that work day-to-day. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and understood first, which can make it easier to try new strategies later.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kimberly will listen to goals and daily realities, then try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. If one way isn’t working, she adjusts the plan together with the client rather than sticking rigidly to a single method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues and a full-session feel. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or a short check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging support quick updates between sessions or ongoing reflection when schedules are tight. These options make it easier to fit therapy into parenting routines, work breaks, or travel.
