About Kimberly
Kimberly Bellar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in Indiana with 20 years of experience. She has worked as a school social worker for Pre K through 5th grade and has helped people manage stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and mood differences such as depression and bipolar. She also addresses ADHD, relationship strain, eating and sleeping problems, anger, and self-esteem struggles.
Kimberly has worked in schools and in clients' homes, supporting individual students and adults connected to those students. She often works alongside families and multidisciplinary teams to identify practical needs and next steps. Her background gives her experience with adoption and foster care situations, attachment issues, blended family challenges, and communication problems.
In sessions she uses approaches that include Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused methods. That means sessions can include exploring how relationships affect behavior, practicing clearer ways to think about problems, and trying small steps to see what helps right away. She aims to help people find healthier coping strategies and thought patterns.
Her work also covers eating and body image concerns, isolation and loneliness, impulsivity, and women’s issues. Kimberly’s school-based experience shapes a practical focus on everyday routines, problem-solving, and communication skills that people can use outside sessions.

BHow sessions work
How Kimberly’s approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how relationships shape behavior and feelings. Online sessions using this approach can help people notice patterns in connections and practice new ways of relating in day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behavior. In online sessions CBT work often includes brief skill practice, thought records, and checking how new ways of coping are working between meetings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and practical needs. That might mean starting with client-centered listening, adding CBT tools, or trying attachment-focused exercises to see what helps most.
Session formats are not listed here, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins during breaks. They also let people use practices such as mindfulness or behavioral experiments at home and then discuss how those felt with the therapist. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to suit a person’s routine and available technology.
