About Kimberli
Kimberli "Kim" Cumming helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and low self-esteem. She also offers coaching for life transitions and coping strategies. Kim is a licensed social worker with long experience in these areas.
Her style is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions emphasize listening first, then practical steps that fit daily life. Clients can expect clear conversation about communication, setting boundaries, and handling overwhelm.
Kim uses a client-centered approach that starts with the person’s priorities.
How Kimberli works
She asks questions to understand patterns and then works alongside people to find what helps. The work often includes skills for managing moods, repairing communication, and finding direction during midlife or big changes. Over 25 years in practice have given Kim experience with caregiver stress, aging and geriatric concerns, and family of origin issues.
She also addresses attachment, guilt and shame, infidelity, and feelings of isolation. That background helps when clients need both support and concrete coping tools. Kim holds clinical social work credentials listed as LCSW, CSW, and LMSW.
She practices in Michigan and offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Her aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
The focus is on small, doable changes that reduce pressure and increase a sense of purpose and connection.

Online support options
Client-centered care delivered online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's own goals. The therapist creates space for people to describe what matters to them and then helps guide the conversation so solutions come from the client's strengths. This approach is useful for concerns like anxiety, relationship patterns, self-esteem, and finding life purpose.Kim aims to collaborate with each person to find what works best. She will discuss different ways of working and adjust methods to match needs, goals, and preferences. Deciding on an approach is part of the work together rather than a one-time choice.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more convenient. Video is good for a fuller conversation and nonverbal cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing brief reflection between sessions. These options let people fit therapy around work, caregiving, or busy days while keeping regular contact with a licensed professional.
