01About Catherine
Catherine Kimrey offers a straightforward, person-focused approach to therapy. She is an LMHC and LPCC with 18 years of experience. Catherine helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, and low self-esteem.
She uses a client-centered way of working that puts the person’s experience first. Sessions are meant to feel like a calm, nonjudgmental conversation where thoughts and feelings can be named. That foundation guides practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to shift unhelpful thinking patterns.
Background and approach
Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions when they fit the person’s goals. These practices can help reduce reactivity and build steady attention to what matters most. Trauma-focused methods are also available when past hurt affects current life and relationships.
Over her career Catherine has supported people facing life transitions such as divorce, midlife questions, caregiving strain, blended family challenges, and aging concerns. She also addresses family of origin issues, codependency, infidelity, and isolation or loneliness. Clients can expect direct, simple communication and practical strategies to try between visits.
Catherine helps people set clear, achievable steps and checks progress in ways that feel realistic. Her work aims to make daily life more manageable and meaningful. She practices from Minnesota and conducts sessions in English.
Catherine’s approach emphasizes collaboration, steady support, and skills people can use outside of sessions.

04Online support
How Catherine’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy is about listening and helping the person set the agenda. Online sessions use that same focus to build an open, nonjudgmental conversation where the client leads the goals and pace.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In an online format Catherine can teach simple CBT tools, assign brief exercises between sessions, and review progress together to reduce anxiety or low mood.
Mindfulness work helps people notice their experience without getting swept away by it. Short breathing and attention practices can be introduced during a video call or reinforced through text reminders between visits.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Catherine will talk through options, consider goals and preferences, and adjust methods as needed. The plan can change over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls let body language and tone come through, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging helps keep momentum between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
