About Kim

Kim Broadnax is an Ohio-licensed social worker with 40 years of professional experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, career concerns, depression, and ADHD.

Background and approach

As an LISW she draws on extensive clinical experience to support clients navigating caregiving demands, life transitions, and the emotional effects of chronic illness or aging. Her practice emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while honoring each person’s beliefs and life context.

Her style centers on empowering clients to explore thoughts and feelings without judgment and to build practical coping skills for daily life. Kim integrates client-centered principles with cognitive tools and mindfulness practices to address self-esteem, communication problems, seasonal mood shifts, and questions of life purpose.

She encourages courageous first steps toward change and partners with clients to clarify goals and strengthen resources for sustained well-being.

Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Kim often uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and placing the client's goals and values at the center of the work; this approach helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most to them. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to explore needs, preferences, and goals, then adapts methods as therapy progresses so the plan fits each person's situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life circumstances. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access support from home or work while working with licensed professionals.
