About Kimberly
Kimberly Steinmann is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 27 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting struggles, addictions, and codependency. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
She draws on a mix of practical therapies to help people manage day-to-day problems. Kimberly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to clarify values and shift unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills where needed to improve communication and coping.
Her background includes work across multiple settings and with a wide range of mental health challenges. She also brings personal experience as a parent of an adult child with severe mental illness, which informs how she talks with caregivers and parents about stress and practical supports.
In sessions she helps people identify patterns that lead to people-pleasing, losing themselves in relationships, or difficulty setting boundaries. She focuses on concrete steps - small behavioral changes, new ways of communicating, and skills for handling intense emotions.
Kimberly aims to make therapy straightforward and focused. She encourages people to name what matters, practice new behaviors between sessions, and review what is and isn’t working. Scheduling begins through the site’s matching questionnaire and a first session is arranged after that selection process.
How sessions work
How Kimberly’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking committed action toward those values. Online sessions can help someone stuck in people-pleasing notice their values and try small behavior changes between meetings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and habits with practical exercises. In virtual sessions, CBT often includes homework like thought records, behavior experiments, and brief skill practice that can be reviewed together.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting to help people organize their own thinking. That approach can make remote conversations feel focused on the client's priorities and immediate concerns.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, current struggles, and preferences, then try methods that fit. Progress is reviewed and the plan is adjusted based on what helps most.
Confirm available session formats before booking, since specific options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life - shorter check-ins, sessions that avoid travel time, or options that reduce the need to be on camera. These practical benefits help people practice new habits in their everyday routines.
