About Kimberly
Kimberly Sacra is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arizona with 25 years of experience in social services and counseling. She has worked in direct care roles and in crisis counseling, and has spent many years supporting young people involved in foster care. Kimberly focuses on helping individuals manage stress, anxiety, trauma, mood concerns, and relationship-related challenges.
Her approach centers on using a person-focused style that draws on practical techniques.
How Kimberly works
She combines client-centered work with trauma-focused and mindfulness strategies to help people feel understood and build new coping skills. Sessions often include short, doable exercises and real-life tools clients can try between meetings. Kimberly pays attention to the effects of loss, abandonment, and caregiver strain.
She also helps people facing parenting stress, grief, anger, bipolar mood challenges, and compassion fatigue. Her background includes work with adoption and attachment concerns and with people experiencing panic or post-traumatic stress. Sessions aim to be collaborative and strengths-based.
Clients can expect a calm, accepting space where problems are named and practical steps are explored. The therapist uses solution-focused methods when clients want brief, goal-directed work and more exploratory methods when deeper healing is needed. She offers a mix of formats for remote care, including video, phone, live chat, and text messaging.
Kimberly explains options at the start so people can pick what fits their schedule and communication style.

Online support options
Approaches you can access online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client without judgment. It helps people clarify feelings and make choices that fit their values. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in emotional responses and close relationships to help people change how they connect and respond during hard moments. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that match those priorities. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust techniques over time if one approach is not a good fit.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter call is needed, and chat or text can fit quick check-ins or shorter, more frequent support. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between meetings.
