About Kimberly
Kimberly Harshaw is a licensed clinical mental health counselor practicing in North Carolina. She holds a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling and has seven years of experience. Kimberly focuses on helping adults who face depression, anxiety, mood disorders, grief, and life changes.
She also addresses anger and supports people coping with chronic pain and relationship strain. Kimberly uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She listens first, then helps people set clear goals and small steps toward them.
Background and approach
Conversations center on what is happening now and on building skills to manage strong feelings and daily challenges. Her approach blends several evidence-based techniques that target thoughts, emotions, and long-standing patterns. That mix can help people reduce distress, handle painful memories, and change unhelpful habits.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and respectful, with an emphasis on building hope and resilience. Kimberly works with individuals 18 and older. She meets people where they are and moves at a pace that feels manageable.
The focus is on practical tools for coping, improving relationships, and recovering a sense of control over life. For someone feeling overwhelmed by anger, loss, or ongoing mood struggles, Kimberly offers steady support and skill-focused work. She encourages small, attainable changes and stays alongside clients as they practice new ways of coping.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Kimberly uses several evidence-based techniques to guide sessions. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. These methods break problems into manageable steps and teach concrete coping skills.Dialectical behavior informed strategies emphasize emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills can help people manage intense anger, reduce impulsive reactions, and improve relationships. Schema-informed ideas look at long-standing patterns and help people notice and change deep-rooted ways of thinking that cause repeated pain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts the plan as progress is made and as new issues arise.
Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation and teaching of skills. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer a written way to process things between sessions and can be used for brief updates or practice of new skills.
