About Kimberly
Kimberly Lincoln is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She practices in North Carolina and works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, depression, and addictions.
She has extensive experience working with children and youth involved in the child welfare system and has supported caregivers as they stabilize crises. She has also worked with women who survived childhood sexual trauma, people in the LGBTQ community, couples, and men facing codependency and addiction issues.
Her approach adapts to what the client needs in the moment while keeping sight of longer-term goals. Kimberly uses methods that help name and work with strong emotions, change thought patterns, and build practical skills for day-to-day challenges. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when helpful.
She has used trauma-focused interventions and motivational interviewing in settings that address both individual symptoms and family dynamics. This includes helping with attachment and adoption-related concerns, blended family stress, caregiver burnout, and the effects of domestic violence.
Sessions typically address immediate stressors so clients can return focus to broader goals. Kimberly also works on communication, intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, grief, and coping with major life changes. She aims to help people feel better in the areas that brought them to therapy.
How Kimberly blends EFT, CBT and client-centered work online
Kimberly draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with strong feelings and attachment patterns. EFT is often used when relationship patterns and intense emotions are central to the problem.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, reflecting, and following the client’s concerns so sessions stay relevant to what matters now. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another common tool she uses to identify unhelpful thinking and build practical skills for everyday problems like anxiety and depression.
Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Kimberly will discuss different approaches and adapt them to the client’s goals and preferences, checking in about what is or isn’t working as therapy progresses.
