About Kimberly

Kimberly Lisle is a Florida LMHC with 25 years of experience. She helps people manage anger alongside stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, parenting challenges, and trauma-related concerns.

She has a long history of working with families when children face attachment issues, foster care, or adoption transitions. Her background includes supporting kids and teens with impulsivity, hyperactivity, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, anxiety, and conduct concerns. She also has experience helping adults who have lived with physical trauma or emotional abuse.

Her style is direct and practical. Sessions tend to be goal-oriented and interactive, focusing on skills people can use between meetings. Conversations include setting clear steps, practicing new ways of reacting, and checking what works in daily life.

Kimberly blends several therapeutic approaches to match each person's situation. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Attachment-informed ideas guide work on connection and patterns learned in early relationships. Motivational strategies help when someone feels stuck or unsure about change.

She emphasizes straightforward talk and concrete tools rather than abstract concepts. Expect an honest, task-focused approach that looks at current problems and builds doable strategies. People who want to reduce snapping, manage resentment, or handle others' anger often focus on practical skills and clearer communication in her work.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and connection patterns. Online work can focus on recognizing those patterns and practicing different responses in real life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches skills to change unhelpful cycles. CBT is often used for anger, anxiety, and mood concerns. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change when they feel stuck or ambivalent and supports setting small, realistic goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. That choice can evolve as progress is tracked and new challenges arise.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because they are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on high-stress days. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require video, which can help when a quick, practical session is needed. Discuss options during the first scheduling steps to pick what will best fit everyday life.
