About Kimberly
Kimberly Hauser is a licensed independent social worker who helps adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges. She combines practical problem-solving with a compassionate, down-to-earth approach so clients can focus on what matters next. Kimberly speaks plainly and works with each person to set clear, achievable goals.
She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the client's perspective and priorities. That means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and follows the client's lead while offering gentle guidance.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and to build specific skills for daily life. Kimberly also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy when they fit a person's needs. These methods add skills for emotion regulation and quick, practical steps for moving forward.
Sessions often include skill practice, short-term planning, and coaching for real-world problems. Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She helps people spot patterns, try new coping strategies, and adjust plans when something isn’t working.
Clients who are juggling work, parenting stress, or big life changes often find this hands-on approach useful. With 14 years of clinical experience and an Ohio LISW credential, Kimberly brings steady experience to conversations about mental health, grief, impulse control, and relationship strain. She offers video, phone, chat, and text-based sessions to fit different schedules and preferences.
Practical therapies that work well online
Client-Centered Therapy places the client's experience at the center of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people set priorities and goals based on their own values. This approach helps when someone needs a trusting, respectful space to sort through stress or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes. It is goal-oriented and often includes homework like simple exercises to practice between sessions, which many people find useful for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best given their goals, needs, and daily life. That means trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting plans together rather than insisting on a single path.
Online sessions offer practical benefits for busy schedules. Video calls let participants use visual cues for deeper conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a quieter voice check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, problem-solving between sessions, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
