About Kimberly
Kimberly Winkel is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 37 years of experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, life changes, compassion fatigue, relationship and family concerns, trauma and sleep problems. She also supports clients dealing with parenting strain, anger, career shifts, depression, ADHD, and related challenges.
Her style is straightforward and person-focused. She uses problem-solving conversations and practical strategies in session. Sessions often look like setting clear goals, trying small changes between meetings, and checking what helps. She brings attention to culture and identity when those issues matter to the person.
Kimberly draws on several common therapy approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thought and try different behaviors. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention skills to reduce reactivity. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on strengths and next steps rather than lengthy history.
She also uses client-centered and trauma-focused methods when appropriate. That means sessions are guided by the person’s goals while addressing the effects of past hurt when needed. In practice she mixes these techniques to match what the client prefers and what the problem calls for.
Kimberly accepts clients from outside the United States as well as within Florida. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How Kimberly adapts approaches for online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and perspective, letting the client guide what to work on and at what pace. This approach helps when someone wants their own priorities to shape the work rather than following a preset plan.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises and experiments to try different responses to anxiety and phobia-related situations, which can be practiced between sessions.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches basic attention skills that reduce reactivity and help with sleep and stress. Practices are short and practical so they can fit into ordinary days.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kimberly will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust strategies based on what helps. This is a collaborative effort focused on concrete next steps rather than one fixed method.
