About Kimberly

Kimberly Hauser uses a client-centered approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the everyday pressures of modern life. She is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio and focuses on practical steps clients can take to feel more steady and intentional. Sessions aim to be collaborative and down-to-earth, with attention to what matters most to each person.

Kimberly often supports people facing parenting challenges, relationship strain, and career transitions. She helps clients untangle family of origin issues, blended family concerns, and the fallout from separation or divorce. Work can include problem solving for communication problems, addressing codependency, and coping with grief or trauma.

Her method blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies, and solution-focused work inside a client-centered frame. That means sessions include noticing patterns, trying small practical experiments, and building skills to manage emotions and impulses. Themes like ADHD, anger, and first responder stress are handled with attention to daily routines and realistic strategies.

Kimberly brings 14 years of practice to each session and aims to make therapy useful from the first meetings. She emphasizes clear goals, steady progress, and usable tools clients can practice between sessions. She also offers coaching-style support when people want concrete steps for change.

Therapy is offered in English and Kimberly accepts international clients. Sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy puts the person’s goals and preferences at the center of each session, so the clinician adapts pace and focus to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and uses simple exercises to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences together and adjust methods as progress is made. That collaborative process helps make sessions feel relevant and focused on clear next steps.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or for people who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when a shorter written session fits a busy day. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to fit sessions into work, parenting, or travel schedules.
