About Kim

Dr. Kim Gorecki is a Wisconsin clinical psychologist (WI Psychologist 2810 - 57) with 24 years of experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting questions, and coping with life changes. She also addresses issues related to grief, anger, self-esteem, career and depression, and provides coaching-oriented support when helpful.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses. Practical skills for communication, emotion management, and problem solving are common parts of her work.

Her background includes long experience in outpatient mental health settings and work in correctional facilities and psychiatric hospitals. That range of settings shapes a straightforward, skills-focused approach. She offers both short-term, solution-focused work and longer-term therapy depending on needs.

In early sessions she helps people clarify goals and pick a method to try. She explains steps plainly and suggests short experiments between meetings. Many clients work on organizing daily routines, reducing worry, or improving how they talk about difficult topics.

Dr. Gorecki earned a doctorate in clinical psychology in 2005 from the Wisconsin School of Professional Psychology. She completed an undergraduate degree in psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1996. Her license is listed as WI Psychologist 2810 - 57.

How CBT and related approaches are used in online work

Dr. Gorecki commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot automatic thoughts, test those thoughts, and try different behaviors to reduce distress. CBT is practical and focuses on breaking unhelpful patterns that keep problems going.

She also draws on client-centered methods that emphasize listening and building a clear plan together. Mindfulness techniques are used to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus. These approaches suit anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and coping with life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will review goals and preferences in early meetings and suggest a mix of CBT tasks, reflective conversations, or short solution-focused steps. Clients and therapist decide together what to try and when to adjust the plan.

The biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they can fit meetings into a workday, use shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel. Online sessions still allow for written homework, guided breathing or exposure exercises, and structured skill practice between meetings.
