About Kimberly

Kimberly Slaughter is a licensed professional clinical counselor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, and shifts in life. She aims to make the first step feel manageable by creating a calm, nonjudgmental space. Her style is straightforward and supportive for people who want clearer motivation and stronger self-esteem.

In sessions she listens closely to what matters most to each person. She encourages practical steps you can try between meetings and checks in on how those changes feel.

Background and approach

Her work blends a client-centered attitude with strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy, so conversations move between understanding feelings and building workable skills. Kimberly brings three years of professional experience and holds the LPCC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. She practices in Ohio and conducts sessions in English.

Many people come to her when they're dealing with depression, addiction concerns, anger, job stress, or major life changes. Kimberly helps clients sort priorities, break big problems into smaller steps, and strengthen everyday coping skills. She invites people to take the next step without pressure.

The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a time that fits the person's life. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the person's priorities. It helps people feel heard and understood, which can make it easier to talk about parenting stress, low self-worth, or relationship and life changes.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions influence feelings. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and improve mood over time.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to keep continuity when life gets hectic. Online formats can support regular check-ins, skills practice between meetings, and a steady routine for people managing stress, parenting demands, or major life transitions.

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.
