About Kimberly
Kimberly Johnston is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and issues related to addiction and grief. Kimberly aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters most to them.
She uses practical, conversational methods that match each person’s needs. Sessions focus on understanding feelings, building coping skills, and setting small, reachable goals.
Background and approach
Kimberly draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and shift strong emotions in the moment. She also uses client-centered approaches that prioritize the client’s goals and perspective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are offered to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behavior patterns.
Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused methods are used when people need help finding motivation or immediate steps to move forward. Kimberly emphasizes working alongside clients rather than directing them. She helps people notice strengths they already have and apply those strengths to everyday challenges.
The work is collaborative and paced to fit each person’s comfort level. Sessions are offered through online formats, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Kimberly supports people who want practical tools for coping, clearer thinking about choices, and steadier emotional balance.

Online support
How Kimberly Uses Emotion and Skill-Based Approaches Online
Kimberly combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy with Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address emotional patterns and everyday problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and shift strong emotional reactions in the moment, useful for anxiety, grief, and relationship-related feelings. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s goals and experience, allowing sessions to follow what matters most to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Kimberly will talk with each person about what they want to change and try methods that match their goals and comfort level. Sessions can blend emotional exploration with practical skill-building so progress can feel meaningful and doable.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation; phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits better. Live chat and text messaging work well for ongoing support between sessions or for people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to choose the format that helps someone engage most effectively.
