Kimberly Lincoln, LMHC, LCMHC

Kimberly Lincoln is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than 11 years of experience. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and dialectical behavior approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or parenting challenges.

Her work often focuses on practical steps and skills. Sessions aim to identify patterns, test new ways of thinking, and build daily routines that reduce distress. Kimberly pays attention to what is urgent in a person's life and shifts focus as needed to handle immediate problems.

She has a background supporting people affected by trauma and abuse, survivors of childhood sexual trauma, and those navigating adoption and foster care issues. She also helps people facing codependency, addictions, and challenges related to identity and intimacy.

Kimberly trained at Palm Beach Atlantic University and holds LMHC and LCMHC credentials. She has experience with approaches designed for youth and families from her earlier work in child welfare, and she draws on that when addressing attachment, parenting stress, and blended family concerns.

In sessions she blends structured techniques with a warm, client-centered stance. Expect straightforward tools you can use between meetings, and space to address painful events, grief, or life transitions. The aim is steady progress toward clearer goals and better day-to-day coping.

How CBT and Client-Centered Work Translate to Online Therapy

Kimberly commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try practical alternatives. CBT focuses on specific skills and exercises that translate well to video, phone, or messaging formats and can be practiced between sessions.

She also uses a client-centered approach that emphasizes listening and understanding a person's priorities. That style creates space to talk through painful events, grief, or changes while the therapist follows the client's lead to set goals and pace.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kimberly will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then shape the plan together. That collaborative process helps decide whether more structured CBT work, emotion-focused conversation, or DBT skills will be used over time.

Online sessions offer several practical benefits. Video calls let people work through material face-to-face from wherever they are, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or cameras are an issue, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit brief check-ins or quick coaching during busy days. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and practice new skills between meetings.
