About Kim

Background and approach

She creates a calm, supportive setting where clients can be heard and validated while working toward clearer thinking and more balanced daily routines.

With 24 years of professional experience, Dr. Gorecki has practiced primarily in outpatient mental health settings and also worked in correctional facilities and psychiatric hospitals.

Her work addresses stress and anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting and family issues, grief, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, depression, and LGBT-related matters, as well as communication problems, divorce and separation, life purpose, pregnancy and childbirth, and women’s issues. She offers both brief, solution-focused work and longer-term therapy, tailoring the approach to each person’s needs.

Approach and Options for Online Therapy

Dr. Gorecki often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, mood, and stress. She also employs client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients feel understood while exploring goals and values. Mindfulness therapy is another tool she uses to teach present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance, which can support stress reduction and improved emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Gorecki works with each person to determine whether shorter solution-focused work or a longer course of therapy best fits their needs, adjusting techniques according to goals, preferences, and progress over time.

Online therapy with her is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to maximize flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue care while managing life responsibilities, and access therapy from within Wisconsin without in-person visits.
