About Kimberlyn
Kimberlyn Hastey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, and issues related to identity and family of origin. She also supports people coping with trauma, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood concerns, and difficulties with self-esteem and body image.
Her practice centers on listening to each person's story. She uses client-centered work to follow what matters to the individual and to let the client's goals lead the sessions. Kimberlyn often blends cognitive behavioral strategies with narrative methods to help people notice patterns and rewrite unhelpful thoughts.
Sessions include practical tools such as thought records, behavioral experiments, and brief solution-focused planning. She draws on mindfulness skills to help reduce reactivity and to anchor the moment when stress or strong emotions overwhelm daily routines. This mix aims to give concrete ways to manage mood, reduce anxiety, and improve communication.
Kimberlyn has worked with a wide range of adults and with many people from the LGBTQ community. She has experience supporting those dealing with family problems and family of origin issues, as well as people with caregiving stress and first responder-related strain. Her practice has included individual work and small-group settings.
People who choose her often want straightforward, practical sessions that link life events and personal patterns. To begin, she asks about what is most pressing and which coping steps feel doable. From there she and the client plan short-term goals and check progress over time.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Kimberlyn commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their past, helping them separate problems from identity and consider alternative ways to understand their experiences.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions may combine techniques so clients can test what helps with mood, relationships, or family of origin patterns.
The biography does not list specific online session types, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Phone or audio sessions use less bandwidth and can be a simple way to keep regular appointments. Kimberlyn and the client will discuss what format best supports practical needs and daily routines before scheduling.
