Kimberly Lincoln, LMHC, LCMHC

Kimberly Lincoln brings over a decade of clinical experience to her work, holding a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Palm Beach Atlantic University, earned in 2010. She is credentialed as an LMHC and LCMHC, which means she is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor authorized to practice in Florida and North Carolina. Her career has focused heavily on supporting children and youth involved with the child welfare system, working alongside families to stabilize crises and restore functioning within the family unit.

Kimberly has extensive experience with survivors of childhood sexual trauma, members of the LGBTQ community, couples, and men coping with codependency and addiction. She combines practical, client-centered care with evidence-based techniques, drawing on trainings that include Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, MATCH for youth, Multi-Systemic Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Her therapeutic approach centers on meeting each person where they are - addressing immediate stressors as they arise while also supporting progress toward longer-term goals. Kimberly aims to help people reduce distress and regain balance across the areas of life that brought them to therapy, and she approaches each case with both clinical skill and compassion.

How Therapeutic Approaches Work in Online Care

Kimberly integrates several evidence-based methods to tailor care to each person’s needs. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so the client feels heard and guided while exploring personal goals and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies and teaches skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kimberly works collaboratively with clients to determine which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This partnership helps ensure therapy stays relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain consistency during life transitions, and access support from home or other convenient locations, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists trained in these approaches.
