About Kimberly

Kimberly Adams is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 37 years of practice across Oklahoma and Kansas. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, and the challenges that come with major life changes. Kimberly also supports people dealing with relationship strain, grief, trauma, and issues around self-esteem and identity.

She uses approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and emotionally-focused therapy. In sessions she listens closely, helps people sort through feelings, and offers practical tools for managing moods and stress. Conversations are geared toward concrete steps rather than abstract theory.

Kimberly has a long history of helping clients with career concerns, addiction-related struggles, sleep and eating problems, and attention-related difficulties. She also notes experience with LGBT issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and coping after loss. Her background includes supporting people through both sudden and gradual life transitions.

Her practice pays attention to cultural differences and how identity shapes experience. She encourages clearer communication, stronger boundaries, and strategies that fit daily life. Prospective clients in Oklahoma should confirm session formats and procedures before scheduling.

To begin, users are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions using this approach help people notice how they want connection and how that affects relationships now. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down patterns of thinking and behavior into steps. In an online setting CBT is often used to identify unhelpful thoughts, try small behavioral experiments, and practice new skills between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning can include trying a few techniques and checking what helps most over time.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions let them fit appointments around school, work, or caregiving, reduce travel time, and make brief check-ins easier. For others the format helps with pacing homework, sharing worksheets, or practicing skills in daily life. Ask about how sessions are scheduled and what you can expect during your first meeting.
