About Kimberly

Kimberly Bellar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Indiana with two decades of clinical and school-based experience. She brings a calm, nonjudgmental presence to sessions and focuses on helping people develop healthier coping skills, manage stress and anxiety, and navigate life transitions.

Background and approach

Kimberly’s work covers a broad range of concerns including trauma, family and relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, mood disorders, ADHD, grief, and issues related to identity and self-esteem. Her background includes extensive experience in school settings with Pre-K through 5th grade students as well as practice supporting individuals, adolescents, and families in both school and home environments.

That experience informs a collaborative style that values input from clients and multidisciplinary team members when addressing areas of need. Kimberly blends evidence-based methods with an accepting stance to help clients reframe thinking patterns, improve communication, and build practical tools for daily life.

She encourages people who are ready for change to take the first step toward improved well-being and offers flexible session formats to support engagement across different schedules and circumstances.

Approaches that guide online work and practical benefits

Kimberly often uses attachment-based work to explore how early and current relationships shape emotions and behaviors; this approach can help people improve connection, repair communication patterns, and address attachment issues in family contexts. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and stress, which is useful for day-to-day coping and goal-oriented change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she treats that as a collaborative effort. Together with each client she will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs to tailor which methods to emphasize, adjusting strategies over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules and to maintain continuity during life transitions. These formats allow clients to access licensed professionals from wherever they are in Indiana, enabling regular follow-up, skill practice between sessions, and timely support when challenges arise.
