About Kimberly
Kimberly Vance is an LCSW licensed in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting, career issues, addictions, and depression. Kimberly also addresses family and attachment difficulties and supports people facing life changes. She speaks English and practices from a practical, problem-focused stance.
She uses clear, structured tools to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions include talking through current problems, trying small behavior changes, and learning ways to manage intense emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a central part of her work alongside Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques.
Kimberly often helps parents with everyday parenting challenges and people coping with separation or blended family issues. She also works with those dealing with fertility stress, military-related concerns, mood and personality difficulties, and issues such as infidelity or sex addiction. Her approach is practical and goal-focused rather than theoretical.
She uses Motivational Interviewing when people want to change behaviors tied to addictions or impulsivity. Sessions tend to focus on concrete steps and measuring progress over time. Clients who prefer a direct, structured approach to managing anxiety and life transitions may find this style useful.
To begin, potential clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and the practice uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted.
