About Kimberly

Kimberly Fenner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She focuses on practical steps people can use now to feel steadier. Her approach is down-to-earth and centered on each person's goals and strengths.

She draws on a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University and a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Wyoming. Before counseling, Kimberly spent 16 years as a social worker helping people with chronic mental illness and life-altering disabilities. That background shaped how she looks past immediate problems toward longer-term hope.

In sessions she helps people identify skills they already have, strengthen those skills, and learn new ones to reach desired changes. She talks through concrete strategies for managing anger, improving sleep, handling relationship and communication problems, and coping with major life events. The tone is collaborative and practical rather than overly clinical.

Kimberly emphasizes making intentional choices even when circumstances feel chaotic. She sees therapy as a shared journey where the client sets goals and she provides guidance, tools, and steady support. Her work is aimed at helping people regain direction and build a life that fits their values.

Outside of practice, Kimberly has lived in Texas for more than 27 years. She spends free time with family, traveling, and studying history.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for managing anger, anxiety, and life changes by focusing on what matters most and taking small steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches specific tools to change patterns that maintain problems like anxiety, low mood, or sleep disruption.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time so the plan stays practical and relevant to daily life.

Confirm current session options before booking to learn the formats she offers. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people continue steady work during life transitions or when facing mobility or caregiving demands.
