About Kimberly

Kimberly Qualls is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, addictions, parenting challenges, and related life changes.

Background and approach

She centers care on people’s strengths, building rapport, and practical strategies that help clients move toward clearer goals. With an emphasis on collaborative problem solving, she draws on evidence-based techniques to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

Her background includes work leading day treatment groups and therapeutic activities that taught functional living skills and addressed behavioral concerns for youth. That experience informed her ability to identify risk and resilience factors within individuals, families, schools, and communities, and to partner with others on intervention planning.

Licensed in multiple jurisdictions as an LMSW and LICSW, she brings nine years of clinical practice and a steady focus on helping clients develop skills, cope with change, and strengthen relationships.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Kimberly often integrates client-centered therapy, which focuses on creating understanding and respect for each person's experience while helping them set their own goals; this approach is useful for building trust and exploring personal values. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, a useful method for addressing anxiety, depression, and patterns that get in the way of daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another tool she draws on to help people understand and reshape patterns in close relationships by working with emotions and attachment needs.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist collaborates with each client to determine which combination of methods best matches their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative stance means techniques can shift over time as priorities change and progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit consistent care into busy lives, accommodate travel or relocation, and allow clients to work with a licensed professional from a distance while pursuing therapeutic goals.
