Kim’s personable and approachable nature as well as her tangible suggestions for new practices and habits have already made such a difference to my mindset after a few weeks. I look forward to her sessions as she always has a different perspective that unpicks the root of any problem I speak to her about, and I feel very supported.

I started BetterHelp by instinct after years of therapies and therapists. I am so happy that Kim is there for me whenever I choose to reach for her. The convenience, easiness, extreme support, professionalism, rapport, communication are just exactly perfect for me!

More about Kimbalie

  • 19 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Florida. I received my Master's degree in Social Work from Barry University in Miami, in 2000. My experience includes providing counseling for anxiety, depression, trauma & stress. I have also helped people with adjusting to major life changes such as divorce, loss, and disability.

My counseling style is open, non-judgmental, and interactive. I believe we all have individual strengths that can be used to help cope with tough times and overcome challenges. My approach combines solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, motivational, and compassion-focused counseling. I will tailor our communications and treatment plan to meet your individual goals.

It takes insight and courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
