Kimberly Henry, LISW, LCSW

Kimberly Henry is a licensed social worker with credentials as an LISW in Ohio and an LCSW in Indiana. LISW stands for Licensed Independent Social Worker and LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker. With eight years of experience, she works with people facing anxiety, stress, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, compassion fatigue, ADHD, career challenges, and aging or geriatric issues, as well as related concerns like guilt, shame, and forgiveness.

She helps clients clarify and pursue self-identified goals by tracking behavior and building insight into how actions reflect unmet needs. That information becomes the basis for practical strategies that better meet those needs and reduce distress. Her work emphasizes measurable progress and concrete skills so clients can see how changes in behavior support their goals.

Her therapeutic stance is client-centered, meaning she centers each person s values and choices while collaborating on solutions. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing, and uses dialectical behavioral techniques when appropriate, to help clients develop effective approaches for lasting change. Kimberly is currently accepting referrals from Ohio only. Because of professional restrictions, she is not able to serve clients who are currently involved with the Indiana Department of Child Services.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Kimberly draws on client-centered therapy to place each person s goals and experience at the center of care. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients can define what matters most and move toward those goals at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to build practical skills for managing anxiety, stress, and daily challenges. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their motivation for change, which can be useful when addressing habits, career decisions, or readiness for new coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kimberly works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. This helps ensure therapy stays relevant and effective for each individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Sessions may take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that works best for them. These options can make it easier to maintain consistent care, accommodate work or family commitments, and access licensed professionals from different locations.
