About Kimberly
Kimberly Garrett helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship struggles, depression, and major life changes. She is Kimberly Garrett, a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York with 14 years of experience. She speaks English and works with a wide range of concerns related to mood and coping.
Kimberly focuses on practical steps that fit into everyday life. Sessions aim to uncover strengths and build small habits that reduce anxiety and lift mood.
How Kimberly works
She pays close attention to how past relationships and attachment shape current patterns and choices. Her work draws on a few different methods, including client-centered conversation, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused planning. That mix supports both short-term goals and deeper change.
She also uses mindfulness and motivational approaches when they match a person’s needs. Kimberly notes cultural background as an important part of anyone’s story. She listens for how culture, family of origin, and immigration experiences affect emotions and decisions.
She treats concerns such as abandonment, communication problems, caregiver stress, body image, chronic illness, and isolation. Practical matters are handled through online formats like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling to fit the person’s availability.
Sessions are subscription-based and can be canceled at any time.

Online support options
Therapy approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as the expert in their own life. A therapist using this approach reflects what you share, helps clarify your goals, and supports your decisions so you feel more confident moving forward.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and to build routines that reduce anxiety and improve mood. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, realistic changes and early wins to move toward specific goals quickly.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences, and together you will try methods that seem most likely to help. It is common to blend techniques and adjust the plan over time to match progress and new priorities.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls work well for conversations that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep momentum toward goals.
