About Kimberly
Kimberly Osmanagic is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with young adults and others facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, eating concerns, and addictions. Her stated focus also includes relationship and intimacy issues, grief, sleep problems, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
Kimberly practices in a way that centers the client's own perspective. She treats people as the experts on their lives and helps them build on strengths they already have. Conversations are direct and practical, with attention to how thoughts, behaviors, and habits affect daily functioning.
Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to clarify patterns and test small changes in thinking and behavior. She also uses EMDR for trauma-related work and mindfulness techniques to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Motivational Interviewing is part of her toolbox when clients are weighing change or facing ambivalence.
Kimberly’s background includes work with eating disorders, trauma, addiction, and caregiving stress. She has helped people manage compassion fatigue and navigate complicated family or relationship problems. Her practice pays attention to both mental health and practical health behaviors, informed by previous health coaching experience.
Sessions are spoken in English and Kimberly practices under her Missouri LPC credential. International clients are not accepted. For people wondering how to begin, she asks for a short matching questionnaire and then schedules an initial session to set goals and a plan.
How Kimberly’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. In practice this means sessions emphasize the person's goals, values, and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thinking and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for trauma-related memories and involves structured processing that can reduce the intensity of distressing memories.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Kimberly will work with each person to decide whether CBT, EMDR, mindfulness techniques, or motivational interviewing fits best for their situation. Plans are adjusted over time based on how someone responds and what they want to achieve.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around school, early career shifts, or caregiving duties. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or sessions without being on camera when that helps someone concentrate. Talk with Kimberly in your first meeting about how to structure sessions to fit your routines and goals.
