About Kimberly

Kimberly Saich is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical, relatable therapy. She uses straightforward strategies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and parenting challenges. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, aimed at making therapy feel doable for busy lives.

She works from New Jersey and communicates in English. Kimberly draws from several established methods to tailor care to each person. She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help adjust unhelpful thoughts and build values-based action.

Background and approach

Emotionally-Focused Therapy informs work around relationship and intimacy concerns, and client-centered techniques keep the person’s priorities central. Sessions often focus on everyday problems. That can mean breaking down overwhelming feelings into small steps, practicing new ways to talk with others, or building routines that support recovery from substance use.

She also addresses grief, caregiver stress, ADHD-related struggles, and breakup or commitment issues. Her background includes 12 years of practice and licensure as an LPC with registrations in multiple states. Kimberly aims to make therapy practical rather than theoretical.

She helps clients set clear goals and practice skills between meetings. Parents reading this can expect straightforward guidance for parenting concerns and family stress. The approach is collaborative: she helps identify what’s going wrong, then tests simple changes that fit real life.

Progress is measured in concrete steps, not just talk.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Kimberly commonly integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choosing actions that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior, offering practical tools to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits.

She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationship or intimacy concerns are central. EFT helps people identify and express emotions in ways that improve connection and reduce repeated conflict. In practice she blends these methods to match the specific problem and what the person wants to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps. Clients are invited to be active partners in choosing which strategies to keep or change.

Online sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage parenting demands, or continue work during life transitions. The variety of formats lets clients choose the style that fits their comfort and daily routine.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.
