About Kimberly
Kimberly Fenner helps people facing stress, anxiety, and major life changes. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of clinical experience. Kimberly writes plainly and listens closely to what each person brings to sessions.
She aims to help clients find steady footing when life feels unsteady. Her approach centers on identifying strengths people already have and building new skills that fit daily life. She uses practical methods drawn from cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance-based approaches to help with mood, worry, and unhelpful habits.
How Kimberly works
Sessions also make room for values and meaning when clients face grief, loss, or identity shifts. Before counseling, Kimberly earned a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling and a Bachelor of Social Work. She spent 16 years working as a social worker supporting people with chronic mental illness and disabling conditions.
That background shaped her focus on helping people cope with long-term challenges and recover a sense of hope. Clients can expect straightforward conversations about goals, small steps to try between sessions, and steady feedback on progress. She also addresses relationship stress, communication problems, parenting and fatherhood concerns, and work or career strain.
Kimberly emphasizes realistic, usable tools rather than abstract theory. She lives in Texas and draws on decades in the region to understand local life and culture. Outside of work Kimberly enjoys family time, travel, and reading about history.
Her style is collaborative, calm, and goal oriented.

How Kimberly's Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts without being ruled by them and focus on meaningful actions. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes because it links values to small, practical steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches skills to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, mood concerns, sleep issues, and managing anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kimberly starts by learning a client's goals and preferences, then suggests methods to try. She adjusts techniques over time based on what helps most, so therapy stays practical and tailored to each person.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is a good fit for in-depth conversations and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, and maintaining momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try different formats to see what works best.
