About Kimberly
Kimberly Balkcom is a licensed mental health counselor who practices in Florida. She holds the LMHC credential and has 13 years of experience helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, or major life changes. Her approach aims to make therapy direct and usable for day-to-day life.
She uses simple goal-setting in sessions. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and on small steps that move things forward.
Background and approach
Kimberly helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and develop healthier habits that fit their life. Her work includes a range of concerns such as relationship strain, parenting stress, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Sessions also address depression, ADHD, anger, and questions about sexual identity and LGBT concerns.
She blends tools to match each person's needs rather than relying on a single method. Kimberly describes therapy as a collaborative process. She listens first, then helps set clear, realistic goals.
Over time she supports people as they test new ways of coping and practice different choices between sessions. Practical progress matters in her room. Expect conversations that are straightforward, reflective exercises, and homework that is reasonable to do between appointments.
The aim is steady, manageable change that fits daily life.
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Client-centered therapy puts the client's priorities first and shapes sessions around what matters to the person seeking help. It emphasizes listening, collaboration, and building goals together to guide change and improve everyday functioning.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is practical work for anxiety, depression, and stress, with clear exercises and steps to practice between sessions.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention exercises and ways to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. It can help reduce reactivity and improve coping during stressful or emotional moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each client to choose or combine methods based on personal goals, life demands, and what feels most helpful. That collaborative process makes therapy more useful and easier to keep using over time.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options let people fit care into busy days, make shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or choose formats that match comfort with cameras and bandwidth. The variety supports ongoing progress while adapting to changing schedules and needs.
