About Kimberly
Kimberly Bennett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nine years of experience. She works with people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, or the everyday struggles of parenting and relationships. Her manner is warm and interactive, and she focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
She draws on several ways of working to match what each person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers tools for managing strong emotions and improving coping skills. Mindfulness practices bring attention to the present moment and reduce reactivity. Kimberly also uses motivational interviewing to support people who want change but feel stuck.
Psychodynamic ideas help uncover patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices. She combines these methods to build short-term goals and longer-term insight. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused.
Kimberly aims to make steps feel doable, whether someone is struggling with sleep, addiction, grief, bipolar concerns, ADHD, or everyday stressors. She respects each person’s pace and works to create a clear plan. She is licensed in Mississippi and conducts sessions in English.
People connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging depending on what works best for them.
Approaches and what online therapy looks like
Kimberly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as primary tools. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and ADHD-related routines. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication, which can help with intense emotions and relationship struggles.She views finding the right approach as a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust the plan based on what actually helps in daily life. This means the work can mix skill practice, short tasks between sessions, and reflective conversation to build both immediate coping tools and longer-term insight.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, coaching between sessions, and flexible ways to share progress. These options aim to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
