About Kim

Kim Mouti is a licensed independent social worker with more than 26 years of clinical experience. She brings steady, straightforward support for people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting strain, and everyday stressors. Her work aims to help people feel less overwhelmed and find clearer ways to cope.

She focuses on women's mental health concerns while also addressing relationship stress, self-esteem, and career-related strain. Kim draws on several practical therapy approaches to match each person's needs.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize understanding emotions, improving communication, and building skills to manage strong feelings. Her background includes long-term practice in Ohio and experience with a wide range of issues, such as attachment difficulties, codependency, body image, dissociation, and caregiver stress. That variety informs a flexible, problem-solving style in sessions.

She pays attention to the patterns that keep people stuck and offers simple, concrete tools to try between meetings. Kim's sessions mix talking and skill practice. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to shift unhelpful thoughts and from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotional regulation.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy and attachment-based ideas guide work on close relationships and bonding. People who prefer calm, practical guidance often feel comfortable with her approach. She helps set small, achievable goals and checks in on progress.

The aim is steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.

Online support

How emotion-focused and skills-based methods translate online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and reshaping emotional responses in relationships. It helps people recognize core feelings and learn new ways to connect or respond during conflict or distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current patterns. It helps people see repeating cycles in relationships and try different ways of relating that feel safer and more connected.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and understood. That approach supports people who need space to process difficult experiences without pressure to perform.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kim will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face-to-face when visual connection helps. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or an option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to share thoughts between sessions or for those who prefer writing. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
