About Kimberly
Kimberly Garrett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with 14 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Kimberly also addresses family of origin issues and related topics such as attachment and communication problems.
Her style centers on listening and building on what the client already knows about their life. Sessions focus on practical steps and moment-to-moment adjustments rather than long lectures. She draws on methods like cognitive behavioral and client-centered techniques to help people test new ways of thinking and acting.
Kimberly includes mindfulness practices to help reduce reactivity and increase clarity. She also uses solution-focused and motivational interviewing strategies to set achievable short-term goals and strengthen commitment to change. These methods are aimed at clear, manageable shifts in daily patterns.
She pays attention to how cultural background shapes relationships and expectations. That context helps when people want to understand recurring family roles and patterns from their upbringing. Conversations often look at what behaviors came from earlier family life and what can change now.
Sessions are practical and focused on skills you can use between meetings. Kimberly helps people notice small differences in thought and behavior, then build from those changes. If you want to explore how family of origin issues affect current relationships, she offers focused, plainspoken support to do that work.
How Kimberly Uses Therapeutic Approaches Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It helps people clarify their own priorities and feel understood while they consider changes in relationships and behavior.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and lift mood.
Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to present-moment experience through brief practices. That can lower reactivity and help people notice old family patterns without immediately acting on them.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.
