About Kimberly

Kimberly Adams is a licensed counselor who brings 37 years of experience to her work in Oklahoma and Kansas. She uses a compassionate, client-centered style that focuses on what each person needs right now. People come to her for help with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and major life changes.

She offers a calm space to talk through difficult emotions and past hurts. Sessions often address trauma, grief, relationship issues, and challenges tied to identity, including LGBT concerns. Kimberly also supports people coping with addiction, chronic illness, and the fallout from natural or human-caused disaster.

Her approach pulls from Attachment-Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationships and connection are central. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing intense feelings and changing unhelpful thinking patterns. The emphasis is on practical tools that can be used between sessions.

Kimberly pays attention to the whole person, including cultural background and life context. She helps people strengthen communication, set boundaries, and find steadier self-regard. Many clients work on improving sleep, eating habits, or coping with career and caregiver stress.

Her practice style is steady and respectful, aimed at helping people build better day-to-day routines and handle crisis or change with clearer steps. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect feelings and behavior. It helps when trust, closeness, or abandonment worries are causing stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and everyday coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and daily routines, then recommend ways of working that fit those needs. Clients help shape which methods are used and how skills are practiced between sessions.

Because the specific session formats for this practice are not listed here, confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing sessions during work breaks or quieter parts of the day. It also supports ongoing skill practice and check-ins when people are managing chronic health issues, recovery, or disaster-related stress.
