Kim Riddle

Kim Riddle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who supports people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addictions, grief, and related concerns. She acknowledges the courage it takes to ask for help and aims to meet each person without judgment. Sessions focus on practical steps and steady support so people can move forward with clearer goals.

Kim draws from approaches that include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, trauma-focused therapy, and EMDR. She favors a calm, patient style that gives room for messy feelings and hard truths. Conversations are paced to match what a person can handle in the moment while still making progress toward change.

Her practice centers on helping people notice what gets in the way and build on strengths they already have. That may mean learning new coping skills, challenging unhelpful thoughts, or processing past painful events. The focus is on steps that can be tried between sessions and adjusted as needed.

With 21 years of experience in community mental health, Kim brings long-term clinical experience to everyday concerns. She is particularly familiar with mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, guilt and shame, and the challenges that come with life transitions. Kim supports people across a wide range of emotional and behavioral struggles.

If someone is ready to begin, the process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling. Kim encourages questions about fit and process before booking so people can find a path that feels right.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening closely and following the persons lead. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so someone can name what matters and set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or mood swings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan based on what feels helpful and practical.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations when that helps. Some formats can be simpler when video is difficult, while others let people use visual tools or worksheets during a session. Discussing logistics early on helps match the approach and session style to everyday life.
