About Kimberley

Kimberley Rodriguez-Lepp is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Florida with 25 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship strain, anger, sleep problems, and struggles with self-esteem and parenting.

Kimberley uses several practical methods in session. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy to help people notice what matters and change unhelpful habits. Sessions involve clear skills practice and talking through patterns that keep clients stuck.

People come to her for trauma and abuse recovery, codependency and attachment concerns, and help with blended family dynamics or caregiving strain. She also supports those dealing with chronic illness, cancer, and aging-related stress. The focus is on learning ways to respond differently rather than on quick fixes.

Her style is straightforward and goal-oriented. Conversations often include practicing communication skills, identifying thoughts that fuel anxiety or anger, and setting small, achievable steps for change. Clients leave with concrete techniques they can use between sessions.

Kimberley welcomes international clients and works in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session that fits their needs.

How sessions work

How Kimberley uses therapy methods online

Kimberley commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and learning how to take steps that matter, even when thoughts or feelings are difficult. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or improve sleep.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy ideas, which center conversations on the person’s perspective and build stronger self-understanding. Together with the client she reviews what seems to help and adjusts the approach as needed. Finding the best fit is a collaborative process based on a person’s goals and preferences.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can help fit therapy into busy days - it can be easier to schedule a shorter check-in during a lunch break, avoid travel time, or choose sessions that do not require being on camera. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and match the format to what works for the client.
