About Kimberlyn

Kimberlyn Hastey is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience. She offers a calm, straightforward presence for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Kimberlyn writes plainly and listens closely to help people find practical ways forward.

Her work centers on clients' stories and goals. She draws from cognitive behavioral and narrative approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, test new behaviors, and reframe painful experiences. Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are woven in to support coping and short-term problem solving.

Kimberlyn has worked with a wide range of adults and younger clients over her career. Much of her practice includes people from the LGBT community and those coping with trauma, caregiver stress, or identity questions. She has experience with both survivors and people who have caused harm, and she has used individual and group formats in different settings.

Sessions are practical and conversational. Kimberlyn helps people set clear goals, try small experiments between sessions, and adjust plans when life changes. She emphasizes each person's agency and the healing possible through reworking the stories they tell about themselves.

People who choose Kimberlyn often want an honest, down-to-earth counselor who will listen and offer concrete tools. She welcomes questions about approach and will work with clients to shape a plan that fits their needs and daily life.

How Kimberlyn uses evidence-based approaches online

Kimberlyn often combines cognitive behavioral techniques and narrative therapy when working with clients. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on spotting thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps rewrite those stories so they support healthier choices and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Kimberlyn will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans based on what helps. She aims to be collaborative and to align techniques with a client's daily life and preferences.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since they are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join sessions from quieter surroundings. Licensed professionals can use the same CBT and narrative methods effectively across distance, focusing on practical exercises, homework, and story-based work that translate well to remote sessions.
