About Kim

Kim Mouti is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 26 years of clinical experience. She draws on a long career supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress, and brings a trauma-informed, relational perspective to her work.

Background and approach

Kim’s practice emphasizes understanding how past attachments and current life demands shape coping, self-esteem, and relationships. Her style blends evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies and dialectical skills with emotionally focused and client-centered approaches.

This combination helps clients identify patterns, build practical skills for managing emotions and impulsivity, and repair interpersonal connection when relationship difficulties or family strains arise. Kim also works with concerns like ADHD, caregiving stress, compassion fatigue, and a range of mood and identity issues.

Located in Ohio, she offers services in English and accepts international clients. Her practice supports people navigating career stress, parenting challenges, grief, and long-standing patterns such as codependency or avoidance.

Kim aims to create a collaborative space where clients set goals and try approaches that fit their lives and values.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kim integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and emotionally focused therapy into her online practice. CBT offers practical tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop concrete strategies for anxiety, impulsivity, and mood symptoms. Emotionally focused work centers on understanding and reshaping relational patterns to improve connection and reduce distress in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist explores clients' goals, preferences, and life context and then suggests or combines methods that fit those needs. Clients and therapist regularly review what is helping and adjust techniques so work stays useful and relevant.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to continue care during life transitions, balance parenting or work demands, and access support from different locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor their methods to each client.
