About Kimberly
Kimberly Donihue is a licensed therapist in Missouri with 16 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and depression. She helps people who struggle with attention challenges, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting stress. Sessions are available in English and Spanish.
Clients can expect a warm, down-to-earth approach that centers the person rather than the diagnosis. Kimberly uses practical, evidence-informed methods and listens first to understand what matters most to each client.
Background and approach
She works with people to set clear goals and build coping skills that fit into everyday life. Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to untangle relationship patterns and on client-centered listening to make space for each person's story. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors.
Dialectical behavior strategies help when emotions feel overwhelming. Kimberly also incorporates emotionally-focused perspectives when relationships and connection are central concerns. She uses EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as part of trauma-focused care when appropriate.
She adapts methods to match each person's pace and needs. Across sessions she aims for simple, practical steps - small changes that add up. She pays attention to medical, caregiving, and life-stage stressors including chronic illness, aging concerns, and caregiver strain.
Her goal is to help people regain stability and clearer direction. Therapy is offered through a mix of video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort.

Online support
Online approaches that focus on connection and skills
Attachment-based work helps people see long-standing relationship patterns and how early bonds affect current trust and closeness. It often focuses on communication and rebuilding connection when attachment wounds show up.Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience. The therapist listens without judgment and follows the client's pace, which can help when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and decide on next steps.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It teaches simple tools to test unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She may blend approaches and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break. Live chat or text messaging can be helpful for shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people access consistent care on schedules that work for them.
