About Kimberley
Kimberley Rodriguez-Lepp is a Florida licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, addiction concerns, low self-esteem, trauma and sleep problems. Kimberley also lists social anxiety and phobia among the issues she addresses.
She keeps sessions straightforward and focused. Kimberley uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. She also draws on Client-Centered and Emotionally-Focused ideas to improve communication and emotional connection.
Her work often centers on day-to-day challenges. That can mean building clearer communication skills, managing strong emotions like anger, or creating plans to reduce cravings and relapse risk. Kimberley helps people break concerns into small, manageable steps rather than only looking at large problems all at once.
Kimberley has substantial experience with issues that touch family life and identity. She lists adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family concerns, and caregiver stress among her focus areas. She also works with people dealing with chronic illness, cancer, body image, and the effects of traumatic events.
Sessions emphasize what clients can practice between meetings. Kimberley supports building routines for sleep, practicing specific skills for social situations, and testing new ways of communicating. People who prefer clear, actionable steps tend to find this approach useful.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Kimberley commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and building small actions that align with those values, which can help with anxiety and avoidance. CBT helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete steps to reduce worry and improve everyday functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. She works collaboratively with clients to try methods and see what fits best based on the client's goals and preferences. Adjustments are made as needed so the focus stays practical and relevant to the client’s life.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Kimberley emphasizes practical exercises that people can do between meetings, and the online setting can support practicing skills in real-life moments when that is helpful.
