About Kertina
Kertina Kimbrough is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan who focuses on parenting and family concerns. She offers straightforward support for parents feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, or changes after childbirth. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at helping people find clearer ways to manage day-to-day challenges.
Kertina bases her work on attachment-focused ideas and client-centered conversations. She listens first and helps people build on what already works in their lives.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on improving relationships, handling caregiver stress, and addressing issues tied to adoption, blended families, or postpartum struggles. With seven years of experience, she brings steady clinical practice and a calm presence to appointments. She works with concerns that include trauma and abuse, self-esteem, workplace issues, and family problems.
Common topics covered also include forgiveness, guilt and shame, and pregnancy and childbirth-related mental health. Her approach uses attachment-based techniques to look at how early bonds shape current relationships. Client-centered methods mean conversations are guided by the client’s priorities and pace.
This combination aims to strengthen connections and support practical coping skills. Kertina conducts sessions in English and offers multiple online formats. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to availability.
Attachment-focused and Client-centered Care Online
Kertina uses attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationships shape present patterns. This approach helps people understand bond-related reactions and improve connection with loved ones. Client-centered therapy is conversational and guided by the client's priorities and pace, which helps when someone needs practical support for parenting, grief, or stress.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s needs and goals. Sessions begin with listening and setting priorities, then adapt over time based on what proves helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to keep continuity when life is unpredictable. Using different formats also lets people pick the way of communicating that feels safest and most useful for them.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
