About Kimberly

Dr. Kimberly Walsh brings a practical, skills-focused approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients address stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She uses evidence-informed strategies to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build concrete coping skills for challenges such as depression, bipolar disorder, panic, grief, and compassion fatigue. With an emphasis on measurable progress, she supports clients working through family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and struggles with self-esteem and career stress.

Licensed in Utah as UT Psychologist 117391-2501, Dr. Walsh draws on 32 years of clinical experience to tailor care to each person’s situation.

She also integrates mindfulness-based techniques to help reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness, useful for emotional regulation and managing anxiety. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care concerns, aging and geriatric issues, communication and control problems, isolation and life purpose questions, and financial or midlife stressors.

Her approach aims to blend practical tools with reflective work so clients can pursue tangible change and greater resilience over time.

CBT and Mindfulness Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Dr. Walsh uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, panic, and mood instability. CBT typically involves collaborative goal-setting, skill-building exercises, and practical strategies that translate well to remote sessions. Mindfulness Therapy complements this work by teaching attention skills and simple practices to reduce reactivity and increase emotional balance, useful for stress, grief, and compassion fatigue.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Walsh works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and needs. She tailors interventions over time, combining cognitive strategies and mindfulness exercises as appropriate so the plan evolves with progress and feedback.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options allow clients to access ongoing support from a licensed professional in ways that fit daily life, whether focused problem-solving, skill practice, or brief check-ins between longer sessions.
