About Kimberly
Kimberly Laun is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Kentucky with 20 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, and depression and provides practical, goal-focused support for those concerns.
Kimberly uses clear, action-oriented methods. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify thinking patterns and set manageable goals. Mindfulness techniques are added when they help clients notice stress reactions and slow down unhelpful habits.
In early meetings she asks about what brought someone to therapy and what they want to change. Sessions include setting concrete steps and checking progress each time. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what can be done between sessions to make daily life easier.
Her background includes two decades of social work practice since graduating in 2003. That experience spans different levels of mental health care and informs a practical approach to common problems like social anxiety, isolation, and ongoing low mood.
Kimberly helps people define realistic goals and practice new skills. She emphasizes steady, achievable steps rather than large, sudden changes. The aim is clearer thinking, better coping with stress, and routines that support daily functioning.
BHow sessions work
How CBT, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Work Translate to Online Sessions
CBT helps people spot thinking patterns and test them with small behavioral experiments. Online sessions can use that same step-by-step approach to change worrying thoughts and build different responses. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing practices that reduce physiological stress; these exercises can be guided in a session and practiced between visits. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete goals and what is already working so clients can make steady progress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and life demands. She will suggest approaches, try them, and adjust based on what helps most in real life.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets a therapist observe real-world routines that come up in conversation, which can make homework assignments and behavioral changes more practical.
