About Kimberlee Thomas

Kimberlee Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who enjoys guiding people toward new ways of thinking and experiencing life challenges, with the goal of feeling better and sometimes even joyous. She is a careful listener who makes time to ensure each person feels heard and understood. With a diverse clinical background, she has worked with individuals from age 2 through 103 on a wide range of concerns including trauma, career difficulties, family and parenting issues, severe mental illness, marital problems, depression and anxiety, substance use concerns, sexual health, medical and aging issues, end of life matters, grief and loss, and more.

In recent years she has focused on recovery from narcissistic abuse and has spent the last six years studying and applying targeted treatment methods for that experience. Her experience spans individual and group counseling across many settings - office practice, private homes, group homes, nursing homes, inpatient psychiatric units, community mental health programs, groups associated with Federal Probation and Parole, drug and alcohol services, Native American health programs, foster care families, employee assistance programs, and four years of online counseling.

Her formal training includes a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a developmental emphasis and a sociology minor, and an Associate of Science in Psychology. Kimberlee approaches care holistically, focusing on the present while acknowledging how past experiences and future hopes or fears shape current functioning. When appropriate she teaches mindfulness, deep breathing, and meditation, and integrates clients own spirituality, social supports, thought patterns, and health goals into treatment. She applies cognitive behavioral techniques, rational emotive strategies, transactional analysis, EMDR, and psychometric inventories in a pragmatic way aimed at building strengths and clarifying goals. Sessions emphasize the clients aims, and she aims for each meeting to leave the person feeling they have gained something toward their wellbeing. She is available 7:45am-4:15pm CDT, Monday through Friday.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes the therapeutic relationship and the clients perspective, offering a supportive space where the person is treated with empathy and respect while exploring goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, often used for people recovering from abuse or other traumatic events.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kimberlee Thomas works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors treatment plans and combines techniques as appropriate so the work feels practical and aligned with the persons priorities.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to engage in therapy from locations that suit their schedules. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice new skills between sessions, and fit therapy into busy lives while working with licensed professionals and experienced therapists.
