What do therapy sessions with you look like?
In therapy, I take a client-centered approach and utilize evidence-based practices to help clients challenge ineffective coping strategies they may have developed. The clients I work with most often are adults aged 18 and older. My specific area of specialization is working with the underlying issues causing anxiety, low self-esteem, low self-worth, codependency, and relationship issues. These types of problems are common and can significantly impact your adult life. These difficulties often stem from childhood experiences. I can help you better understand yourself by accurately pinpointing the underlying causes of your concerns. Working together, we can apply proven strategies and techniques to identify optimal solutions, achieve meaningful progress toward your goals, and create positive change without judgment or bias, guiding you toward a brighter, more fulfilling future. As your online therapist, my goal is to make sure you feel seen, heard, and validated.
Hello! I'm Kimberly McKillop, and I offer personalized online therapy to help you address your specific needs and goals. My areas of expertise include self-esteem, anxiety, and relationship issues. I can assist you in identifying and changing negative thoughts and beliefs, promote positive self-talk, foster self-compassion, and self-care, and teach you effective coping skills to manage intense emotions, among other things!

What do therapy sessions with you look like?
In therapy sessions with me, the focus is always on creating a supportive and non-judgmental space where you feel comfortable expressing your thoughts and feelings. During our first session, we’ll start with an in-depth assessment to understand your specific needs, challenges, and goals. From there, we’ll collaborate on a personalized treatment plan. I often use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-focused techniques. Our sessions may include talking through your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, identifying patterns that may be contributing to your challenges, and working together to develop strategies for managing stress, anxiety, or other mental health conditions. Depending on your needs, sessions can also include activities like mindfulness exercises, relaxation techniques, or skill-building exercises to help you cope with difficult emotions. Whether we meet in person, online, or in your home, the goal is always the same: to ensure that you feel heard, supported, and empowered to take steps toward healing and wellness. I also offer ongoing support between sessions, so you always have access to care when you need it.

What does a typical session with you tend to look like?
Working with me can look a little different each session, depending on what you need that day. Sometimes we’re doing body-based work, like somatic tracking, breathwork, or Brainspotting, to help release what your nervous system has been holding onto. Other times, we’re mapping out cognitive distortions, exploring values, or revisiting a tough memory with compassion through narrative or imaginal exposure. You might find yourself dialoguing with an inner child part, naming something you’ve never said out loud, or simply sitting in silence while we give your body time to speak. We may plan an in-vivo exposure together to face a fear with support, or explore layered identity, grief, or boundaries through art, mapping, or future self visualization. On other days, you might write from a part of you that’s scared, angry, or just tired. We’ll notice what feels true in your body, your thoughts, and your emotions, and work with whatever shows up, whether it’s resistance, tenderness, insight, or overwhelm. And sometimes, it’s as simple as just talking it out, because you don’t have many (or any) places where you feel safe enough to be fully yourself without judgment. This space is for all of you, not just the parts that are easy to show. There’s no one-size-fits-all here. Our work is a collaborative process where you don’t have to perform or figure it all out right away. Some sessions will feel deep and heavy. Others might be playful, reflective, or exploratory. You get to lead, and I help shape the path as we go. The goal is always the same: to help you feel more connected to yourself, your body, your voice, and the life you want to live. Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, OCD, burnout, or identity work, therapy with me is about building something that feels both supportive and real, one step at a time.
Hi, I’m Ysabel! I work with people who are ready for something to change, even if they’re not quite sure what that looks like yet. Maybe your mind feels like it never turns off. Maybe you're constantly second-guessing yourself, overwhelmed by emotions, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break. Or maybe you're parenting a child who’s anxious, sensitive, or shutting down, and you’re not sure how to help without burning yourself out in the process. Whatever brings you here, I believe therapy should feel like a safe space to take a breath, be honest, and figure things out at your own pace. I specialize in working with anxiety, OCD, trauma, and the hard-to-name stuff that lives in the body even when we’ve tried to think our way through it. I use a mix of mind-body tools, emotional regulation skills, and real conversations to help you or your child build insight, resilience, and lasting change. I’m not here to “fix” you, I’m here to support you in understanding your story, unlearning what no longer fits, and moving toward a version of life that feels more grounded, clear, and true to who you are.
