About Kimberlee
Kimberlee VanBurch is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life changes. She draws on 15 years of experience in New Jersey to guide practical steps toward feeling more grounded and able to cope. Kimberlee is familiar with challenges like grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and career uncertainty.
She prefers a person-centered style. That means sessions focus on what matters to each person.
Background and approach
She listens first, then suggests tools that fit daily life. Her approach mixes well-known methods to match each client. She uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce reactivity and improve calm in the moment. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. For clients coping with traumatic memories, she may offer EMDR-informed work as part of a broader plan.
Kimberlee emphasizes cultural context and individual strengths. She aims to help people build concrete coping skills and clearer goals. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the client’s needs.
Practically, she offers video, phone, chat, and text-based sessions. New clients start by completing a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling their first session.
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions by focusing on action even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on practical skill building to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger by teaching concrete tools clients can practice between sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your goals, habits, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That plan can change over time based on what helps most, so decisions are collaborative and adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people see nonverbal cues for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, and live chat or text messaging work well for brief check-ins or coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on real-life changes.
