Kimberley Haley, LMHC

Kimberley Haley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts. She brings two decades of clinical work to sessions and focuses on clear, practical strategies that help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life changes.

Kimberley uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a foundation and adds mindfulness and narrative elements when helpful. She emphasizes identifying problems, making a plan, and using concrete steps to reduce distress. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-oriented while staying respectful and nonjudgmental.

Her background includes long experience supporting people who have lived through abuse and trauma, and she has worked with caregivers and families affected by intellectual and developmental disabilities. That history informs how she talks about grief, chronic illness, and the stress of caregiving in session.

Clients can expect a focus on skills they can try between sessions, such as behavior changes, coping strategies, and ways to reframe difficult thoughts. Kimberley also addresses relationship concerns, parenting stresses, sexual trauma, and issues like obsessive thoughts, panic, and bipolar-related challenges.

She combines structured problem-solving with mindful awareness and narrative work to help people make sense of their experiences. The aim is to reduce immediate distress and build clearer plans for daily life, work, and relationships.

How Kimberley’s approaches fit into online work

Kimberley uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, then test small changes to see what helps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills such as emotion regulation and distress tolerance are used when strong emotions or impulsive reactions get in the way of daily life. Mindfulness Therapy adds focused attention and present-moment awareness to reduce rumination and increase calm.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kimberley will work with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and personal style. She frames this as a collaboration where plans are adjusted based on what proves helpful over time.

Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how she is currently meeting with clients. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and support consistent check-ins during life transitions. It also allows for shorter problem-focused sessions or longer work on relationships and trauma, depending on what is needed and what formats are offered.
