About Kimbly
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 20 years of experience, Kimbly Kellam works with adults on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and depression. She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness practices to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes.
Kimbly starts by listening and treating the person as the expert on their life. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and on identifying small, manageable steps toward those goals. She blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and DBT skills to address reactions, thinking patterns, and practical coping strategies.
Her work also covers related concerns such as chronic pain or illness, aging and geriatric issues, substance and process addictions, communication problems, and mood or personality challenges. She can help people sort through guilt, shame, forgiveness, isolation, life purpose, and obsessive or compulsive behaviors.
Kimbly uses mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing to increase awareness and strengthen motivation for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers concrete exercises to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to improve emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. Clients can expect clear explanations, practice tasks between meetings, and regular checks on progress. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the site’s online options.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Kimbly commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s perspective to build trust and clarify goals. CBT provides concrete exercises to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be practiced between sessions. DBT teaches skills for emotion regulation and communication, useful when strong feelings or relationship stress interfere with daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan based on what the client finds helpful.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. The therapist will discuss practical details and how to structure sessions to match the client’s needs and routine.
