Kimberli Patrick , LPC

Kimberli Patrick is a licensed professional counselor in Georgia with over three decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She approaches clients with respect, sensitivity, and calm. Her goal is to help people find ways to handle day-to-day life and reach personal goals.

She uses a client-centered style and adapts how she works to fit each person. Sessions are practical and focused on what the client needs that week. Kimberli aims to create a comfortable, inviting atmosphere where people feel understood and can talk through problems without judgment.

Her background includes inpatient adolescent substance treatment, community mental health, school-based counseling, in-home therapy, group work, and private practice. That mix of settings means she has seen many kinds of challenges and ways people cope. She has worked with children and families in several of those roles, offering individual and family sessions when appropriate.

Kimberli emphasizes collaboration and pacing that matches each person's readiness. She helps clients and family members set small, achievable steps and practices they can use between sessions. The focus is on building skills that make daily life easier and more manageable.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and Kimberli recognizes that. She offers steady, down-to-earth support for people who want a practical path forward and a calm voice as they work through change.

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions

Kimberli uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and problem solving. One common approach is client-centered work, which emphasizes listening closely and shaping sessions around the client's priorities. This helps people who need support with anxiety, stress, or relationship concerns by centering their immediate goals and pacing.

She also draws on skills-based methods that teach coping strategies and communication tools. These techniques break larger problems into small, doable steps and are useful for parenting challenges, ADHD-related difficulties, and managing life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kimberli collaborates with each person to decide what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time and checks in regularly to see what is helping and what needs to change.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people work face-to-face when visual connection matters, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break, live chat suits brief check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing touchpoints between sessions. These options make it easier to connect consistently and keep progress moving forward.
