Kimberly Steinmann, LPC

Kimberly Steinmann is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 27 years of clinical experience. She brings both long-term professional work and personal life experience to sessions, including parenting an adult child with serious mental illness. Her approach is warm and grounded, aimed at helping people navigate stress, relationships, and big life changes.

She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to address anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. Kimberly tailors tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness to fit each person’s day-to-day needs. Sessions focus on clear steps people can use between appointments.

Her background includes work across many settings and with a wide range of concerns. That variety shaped a flexible style that adapts to different situations and challenges. She names compassion fatigue, ADHD, bipolar, and intimacy-related issues among her areas of focus.

Kimberly emphasizes collaboration. She listens for values and goals, then helps people try new ways of coping and communicating. Progress is tracked in simple, observable ways so people can see what’s changing.

People who choose her often want a therapist who is engaged and genuinely enjoys the work. She aims to make therapy straightforward and usable, helping people move toward clearer choices and more manageable days.

Therapeutic approaches translated for online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. It can help when people feel stuck during midlife shifts or major life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with day-to-day stress.

Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and reduces reactive patterns. It supports people working through overwhelm, relationship stress, or compassion fatigue.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly treats therapy as a team effort and will talk with each person about goals and preferences. Together they try approaches and adjust what isn’t helpful, aiming for methods that fit the person’s life and pace.

If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit a session into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises to virtual meetings so skills can be practiced between sessions.
