About Kimberly

Kimberly Lisle is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting challenges. She also supports those coping with trauma, attachment disruptions, ADHD, and major life changes.

Kimberly uses a direct, goal-oriented style in sessions. She works in a practical way and focuses on skills people can use between meetings. Sessions are interactive and tailored to each person's needs.

Her background includes extensive work with children and adolescents who have experienced foster care, adoption, and placement changes. She has spent much of her career helping caregivers with parenting strategies for challenging behaviors and attachment-related concerns.

People can expect clear goals, hands-on strategies, and direct feedback. Sessions aim to improve everyday thoughts and habits, strengthen relationships, and reduce distress. Kimberly practices in Florida and conducts work in English.

How Kimberly’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes safe connections and understanding patterns that developed early on. It can help people recognize how past relationships shape present reactions and improve how they relate to caregivers or partners.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It involves active listening and helping people find their own solutions, which can be useful for boosting self-esteem and making values-based decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and routines and teaches concrete techniques to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, compulsions, and everyday habit change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That may mean mixing elements from different approaches and adjusting as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people meet from quieter settings or while on a break from work. Talk with the therapist about what will work practically and logistically so sessions match daily routines.
