Kimberley Slown

Kimberley Slown is a licensed clinical social worker with twenty-five years of experience. She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage anger, stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. Kimberley spends sessions listening and helping people find what works for them.

She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to help clients feel understood and to build stronger ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy are used to teach concrete skills for managing emotions and reactions. She also works with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for processing traumatic memories when appropriate.

Kimberley helps people of different ages move toward clearer goals. She supports people facing relationship concerns, parenting strain, grief, addiction challenges, and changes like divorce or caregiving stress. She also addresses struggles with sleep, eating, body image, and identity issues related to LGBT concerns.

Sessions focus on practical steps and short-term skills alongside deeper work when needed. Kimberley emphasizes collaboration - deciding together which tools to try and when to move at a steadier pace. She aims to create a calm space where clients can speak without judgment.

Her practice is based in Tennessee and she offers services in English. People who want to begin are invited to use the site's Start Therapy process to match and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic approaches work in online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and what the client needs to feel more connected and safe with others. Online sessions can be used to notice those patterns and try new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and pace; the therapist listens closely and follows what matters most in the moment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anger, anxiety, or depression.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit the clients goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean using short skills work at first, then shifting to deeper processing when the person is ready.

Confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments during early mornings or evenings when offered. It also allows for quieter, shorter check-ins or longer focused work when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt tools like CBT worksheets, DBT skills practice, and EMDR-informed processing to an online setting while working with each person's comfort and schedule.
