About Kimberley

Kimberley Rodriguez-Lepp is a Florida licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, addiction, self-esteem, parenting concerns, trauma and depression. Her practice is geared toward people dealing with everyday pressures of early adulthood as well as longer-standing emotional struggles.

She uses approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Existential Therapy. In sessions she focuses on clear, practical steps people can try between meetings. That might include noticing unhelpful patterns, practicing small behavior changes, and improving communication skills.

Kimberley often helps people sort through identity questions, work stress, relationship uncertainty, and the frustration of feeling behind peers. She also addresses trauma, grief, sleep problems, chronic health impacts, and caregiver strain. Conversations are aimed at understanding what matters to the person and creating realistic next steps.

Her long experience includes supporting people through adoption and foster care issues, attachment difficulties, blended family concerns, and body image and aging questions. She also works with those facing cancer, chronic pain or co-morbid mental health and medical conditions.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. For those ready to begin, the typical next step is completing an online matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the service button.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values while learning to tolerate difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and provides practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and addiction-related habits. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to each person's experience, supporting clearer self-expression and stronger communication in relationships.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then suggest ways to try an approach and adjust as needed. This is a collaborative process where methods can be combined or changed over time.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy young adult schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue work during moves or while living abroad. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and communication styles so sessions are practical and relevant to everyday life.
