Kimberly Mullaney, MD, LCPC

Kimberly Mullaney, MD, LCPC, is a Maryland-based therapist with 28 years of professional experience working with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, eating concerns, depression, and difficulties with concentration and memory. She holds an MD - medical doctor - and an LCPC, which stands for Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, credentials that reflect both medical training and specialized mental health licensure.

Her practice emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she adapts conversations and treatment plans to address each client’s unique needs. Kimberly brings decades of clinical experience to work on issues such as focus and attention, mood disorders, panic, post-traumatic stress, body image and eating concerns, and challenges related to abandonment, guilt, or life transitions like divorce and caregiving stress.

Kimberly recognizes that starting therapy can take courage and approaches the process with encouragement and practical support. She partners with clients to develop tailored strategies that reflect their priorities and goals, offering structured guidance alongside empathetic listening to support meaningful change.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Kimberly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s needs. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce anxiety and improve mood and concentration; these practical strategies help clients develop new coping skills and manage day-to-day challenges. Another key focus is trauma-informed work that helps people process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable, reducing symptoms related to post-traumatic stress and helping restore a sense of safety and control.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Kimberly collaborates with clients to determine what methods fit best with their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She combines structured techniques with empathic support to create a plan that evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access care without major disruptions to daily life. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, allow continuity of care across locations within the therapist’s practice area, and make it simpler to maintain regular sessions while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
