About Kimberly
She has worked in the field for 32 years and brings long-term clinical experience to sessions. That background includes work with mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and with people who have experienced trauma and loss. She also helps with parenting concerns, family relationship stresses, and struggles with self-esteem and life purpose.
In session she mixes cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness-based work to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and practice new ways of coping. Sessions often include straightforward exercises, short home practices, and step-by-step problem solving to manage panic, anger, or chronic worry. The goal is manageable change rather than perfect solutions.
Dr. Walsh trained in psychology and counseling at several universities and completed advanced study in clinical psychopharmacology and neuropsychological assessment. She brings that clinical training to everyday problem solving, helping people weigh options when medical or neuropsychological issues affect mood or thinking.
She sees people in Utah and conducts sessions in English. People interested in beginning can use the site's Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist's availability.

How CBT and Mindfulness work for online therapy
Dr. Walsh uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns. CBT sessions typically focus on practical steps, such as testing anxious predictions, building coping plans, and practicing new behaviors to reduce panic or depression.She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices. Mindfulness helps people manage stress, reduce reactivity, and stay connected to present-moment goals during big life changes like a midlife transition.
Choosing the best approach is a joint process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions may combine CBT and mindfulness depending on what makes the most sense for the issue at hand.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people practice skills in real-life settings and bring specific situations into session for immediate feedback.
