About Kimberlee
Kimberlee VanBurch is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey who focuses on common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and ADHD. She helps people build practical coping skills for everyday challenges. Her work is collaborative and direct, aimed at clear steps people can try between sessions.
With 15 years of experience, Kimberlee brings a person-centered style that keeps the client's goals front and center. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral strategies, and mindfulness to offer concrete tools for managing symptoms.
Background and approach
Sessions often include goal setting, skills practice, and reflections on what felt helpful. Kimberlee emphasizes cultural context and a strengths-based viewpoint. She pays attention to how background and life roles shape behavior and choices.
This helps her tailor suggestions so they fit a person’s daily life rather than feeling abstract. Her background includes work with people facing trauma, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and life transitions. She also supports those dealing with work-related burnout, compassion fatigue, and relationship tensions tied to family of origin issues.
Kimberlee uses methods like EMDR when trauma work is needed alongside other approaches. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Costs vary with location and a subscription model is used, which can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and scheduling follows based on therapist availability.
How Kimberlee’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small, committed actions toward them. Online sessions can use ACT exercises to help with motivation, avoidance, and managing difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns; it suits issues like anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related routines. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for trauma work and involves guided processing of upsetting memories alongside therapist-led techniques.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberlee will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and daily schedule. She adapts techniques over time, checking in about what helps and what needs changing so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different circumstances. Video sessions allow face-to-face dialogue and exercises. Phone calls are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can support quick skill practice, brief check-ins, or ongoing coaching between longer appointments.
