About Kimberly
LICSW in Minnesota with three years of experience, Kimberly Céspedes helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and major life changes. Kimberly introduces herself directly and focuses on practical steps people can use when life feels overwhelming.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients build coping skills and process difficult feelings. Sessions involve listening, clarifying what matters to the client, and practicing approaches that reduce distress in daily life. Kimberly aims to make sessions straightforward and action-oriented when that fits the client's needs.
Kimberly favors a collaborative working style. She and the person in therapy decide together which techniques to try and how to pace the work. Progress is tracked through small, concrete goals and regular check-ins rather than abstract talk alone.
Her background includes direct clinical work with people navigating trauma and loss, as well as routine stress and mood concerns. The LICSW credential indicates a clinical social work license in Minnesota and three years of post-qualification practice in community and clinical settings.
People seeking therapy are encouraged to start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session so they can see how the approach fits. Kimberly conducts sessions in English and does not work with international clients at this time.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Kimberly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and daily challenges. Cognitive approaches involve identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and low mood. Trauma-informed strategies focus on helping people process difficult memories at a manageable pace while building skills to handle triggers and intense feelings.Choosing which approach to use is collaborative. Kimberly discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods based on what proves helpful. That shared planning helps keep sessions focused on real-world improvements rather than theory alone.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy schedules because they remove travel time and can be scheduled during breaks. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins when an in-person visit would be harder to arrange. Ask about format details when you complete the matching questionnaire so the practical setup aligns with your needs.
