Kimberley Rodriguez-Lepp, LMFT

Kimberley Rodriguez-Lepp is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with 25 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship struggles, and low self-esteem. Kimberley aims to create a caring space where people can begin to feel less overwhelmed and more understood.

In sessions she listens for each person’s story and looks for practical ways to change everyday habits and thoughts that get in the way. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered work to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors. Conversations often include building clearer communication and stronger emotional awareness.

Kimberley also works with people facing trauma, sleep problems, parenting strain, grief related to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and other life transitions. She supports people sorting through attachment, abandonment, blended family challenges, and issues around body image or aging. Her focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Her style is straightforward and respectful. She helps clients set small, achievable goals and practices they can use between sessions. Over years of practice she has used therapy methods that emphasize values, choice, and practical skill building.

To begin, she encourages a simple first step so people can see whether the approach fits their needs before committing to a longer process.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It often supports work on anxiety, stress, and habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience at the center, using empathic listening to support insight and self-directed change.

Choosing the right approach is part of a collaborative process. Kimberley will work with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. That decision can change over time as needs shift.

The original biography did not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and enabling work around job or caregiving schedules. Many people find virtual sessions help maintain continuity during life transitions and make it simpler to use therapy skills between meetings.
