01About Kimberly
Kimberly Fenner helps people facing major life shifts and emotional strains. She focuses on practical steps people can use right away to handle stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship concerns. Kimberly writes plainly, listens closely, and helps clients notice strengths they already have.
She holds a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling and is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of experience. Before becoming a counselor she worked 16 years in social work, supporting people with chronic mental illness and life-changing disabilities.
Background and approach
That background shaped her focus on realistic coping and long-term hope. In sessions she helps clients identify skills they already use and build new ones to reach their goals. She uses straightforward tools for managing mood, sleep, anger, addiction challenges, and coping with big changes like retirement or moving.
She also addresses issues such as communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress, and family of origin concerns. Her approach blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered listening. She can help people work through trauma, loss, and the everyday pressures of career and caregiving.
The aim is to create small, meaningful changes that add up over time. Kimberly lives in Texas and draws on practical experience and empathy when working with clients. Outside work she enjoys time with family, travel, and reading about history.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move toward what matters. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by encouraging committed action in line with values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for depression, anxiety, sleep problems, and anger by teaching concrete tools for daily life.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Kimberly will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try strategies that fit their situation. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan over time so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions offer flexibility that fits busy lives. Video calls let people connect face-to-face when that is helpful, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging allow shorter or more frequent contact between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and travel while still using the same therapeutic approaches.
