About Kim
Kim Lawrence is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Wisconsin. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, trauma, addictions, self-esteem struggles, parenting concerns, and family-related stress. Kim uses a person-centered style.
She works with each person to set clear, realistic goals. Sessions emphasize strengths and practical steps people can try between meetings. Her clinical approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing.
How Kim works
These methods are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, build coping skills, and stay motivated through change. Kim has six years of clinical experience and holds a Master of Social Work. She draws on that background to support adults navigating mental health and trauma-related concerns.
She keeps learning through ongoing trainings and professional growth. In sessions she uses short-term strategies and longer-term skills building. People can expect clear, down-to-earth guidance and concrete tools to practice.
The emphasis is on small steps that lead to steady improvement.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Kim often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes that reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. She also works with Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for people managing intense emotions. Mindfulness techniques are used alongside these approaches to improve present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Kim will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up day to day. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work on these approaches. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice, phone sessions can fit into a busy schedule or use less bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging provide brief check-ins and between-session support. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions and practice new skills consistently.
