Kimberly Holt, LPC - Therapist in Pennsylvania

About Kimberly

Kimberly Holt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with more than 25 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting challenges. Her work emphasizes creating a space where clients feel heard and respected.

She aims to build a strong therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect and collaboration. Her approach combines practical skills and reflective work. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic ideas, and Internal Family Systems to fit each person’s needs.

Background and approach

Sessions often include identifying personal strengths, noticing patterns, and tracing how the past influences current choices and relationships. Kimberly also brings family experience to her clinical perspective, including firsthand knowledge of blending a household. That background informs her sensitivity to family stress, communication struggles, and caregiving pressures.

She pays attention to how family history and attachment shape everyday interactions. In sessions she aims to empower, support, and teach. That can look like practicing new ways to talk, trying small behavioral changes, or working on grief and loss at a manageable pace.

Her style is straightforward, patient, and focused on what works for each person. Clients meet with Kimberly for a range of concerns including abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, and family of origin wounds. She offers practical steps and reflective space so people can make meaningful changes.

Therapeutic approaches and online options for families

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and making space for each person’s perspective, which can help with relationship and parenting stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change thoughts and behaviors that keep anxiety or depressive patterns going. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and can be useful when someone feels stuck about parenting or life choices.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Kimberly will listen to your goals and try approaches that match your needs. She encourages collaboration and adapts methods over time so the plan fits your situation and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy family lives. Sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so parents and caregivers can pick the format that works best. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a hectic schedule and keep continuity when life gets busy.

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.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
