About Kimberly
Kimberly Neal is a licensed professional counselor who brings nearly two decades of mental health experience to her work. She practices in Florida and holds LPC and LCMHC credentials. Kimberly offers calm, direct support for people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem struggles, and anger concerns.
She uses a mix of psychodynamic, behavioral, and humanistic ideas to guide sessions. That means she pays attention to past patterns, current behaviors, and each person’s values when planning change.
Background and approach
Kimberly also follows trauma-informed principles so people who’ve had hard experiences can move at a pace that feels manageable. Her toolbox includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques, Motivational Interviewing, and Behavioral Activation to help change unhelpful thoughts and actions. She teaches mindfulness, relaxation skills, and practical self-care like movement and nutrition to support long-term wellbeing.
Kimberly has worked with clients across a wide range of needs, including anxiety, depression, anger management, OCD, ADHD, oppositional behaviors, and substance use with co-occurring conditions. She has experience with people who have health-related disabilities and those involved in corrections and child-welfare systems. In sessions she aims to create a straightforward, respectful setting where clients can talk through their experiences.
The focus is on building coping skills, testing new behaviors, and deciding what changes matter most for each person.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Kimberly uses a mix of psychodynamic, behavioral, and humanistic approaches. Psychodynamic work helps people notice patterns that come from past relationships and recurring life events. Behavioral techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Behavioral Activation focus on changing thoughts and small daily actions to reduce anxiety, low mood, and anger. She also draws on person-centered ideas to respect each person’s values and pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and situation. Together they review what’s helping, try different techniques, and adjust the plan over time based on what works.
The therapist biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult. It also makes it possible to continue regular skill practice and homework between sessions, while keeping focus on coping strategies, relaxation exercises, and behavior changes that transfer into daily life.
