Kimberly Corts, LCSW

Kimberly Corts is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 22 years of clinical experience supporting adults facing caregiver stress, grief, anxiety, life transitions, and aging and geriatric concerns. She combines professional training and practical skills with each client’s personal values and priorities to form a collaborative partnership focused on realistic problem solving and skill building.

Her practice emphasizes practical interventions drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and Motivational Interviewing to help clients manage symptoms, develop coping strategies, and move toward meaningful goals. Kimberly typically provides short-term services of three to six months that concentrate on concrete tools and measurable progress.

She is comfortable including a Christian perspective when requested, though that is not her standard orientation. Others often find her calm, relaxed, and approachable, and she uses humor when appropriate to put people at ease. Kimberly maintains a strict no-judging approach and aims to create an environment where clients feel respected, supported, encouraged, and challenged.

She welcomes the opportunity to work with individuals who are ready to learn new skills, navigate life changes, and pursue clearer direction in their lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Kimberly frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. She also integrates Mindfulness Therapy to teach present-focused awareness and stress reduction skills that can help with anxiety, grief, and caregiving challenges. In addition she employs Motivational Interviewing to strengthen personal motivation and clarify goals when clients feel stuck or ambivalent about change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kimberly works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as progress unfolds. The emphasis is on practical skill building and problem solving tailored to the individual.

Online therapy with Kimberly is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and mobility limitations. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from home or another convenient location while maintaining regular contact and continuity of care.
