Kimbly Kellam, LPC

Kimbly Kellam is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. She listens carefully and focuses on each person’s strengths to support clearer thinking and steady progress. Kimbly encourages realistic steps that fit daily life and goals.

Her sessions are practical and person-focused. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are offered for managing strong emotions and building coping skills.

Kimbly also brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing into conversations when they help people stay calm and find reasons to try new behaviors. She works with concerns that often come with aging, chronic pain or illness, and long-term mood problems. Addiction-related struggles and obsessive or compulsive behaviors are also within her areas of focus.

Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She helps people set clear, doable goals and tracks progress together. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning.

Kimbly practices in Virginia and conducts work in English. She asks new clients to share where they want to go in therapy so she can match methods to those goals. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling based on availability.

How her approaches shape online care

Kimbly uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on each person’s priorities. That means sessions start with the client’s goals and the therapist follows their lead, helping clarify what matters most and building from there.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to break down thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. CBT offers clear, step-by-step strategies to test beliefs and try small behavioral changes that can ease daily struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimbly treats the choice of methods as a team decision and adjusts techniques based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. She helps people try different tools and keeps what works while changing what does not.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking so you know what formats are currently offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use mindfulness or CBT exercises in real-life settings between meetings. Licensed professionals can tailor sessions to focus on practical skills, emotional regulation, and pacing that fits everyday life.
