Kimberly Laun

Kimberly Laun, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker in Kentucky with 20 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, and depression. Since graduating from the University of Tennessee in 2003, she has worked as a social worker and has built a practical skill set across multiple levels of mental health care. She works with both adults and children and brings a steady, supportive presence to the therapy process.

Many of the individuals Kimberly works with are looking for relief from anxious or depressed feelings, along with clearer direction and realistic steps toward change. Her style is encouraging and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on helping clients identify what matters most and translate those priorities into achievable actions. She often draws on Solution-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients notice patterns, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and develop strategies that support daily functioning and long-term growth.

In the first session, Kimberly takes time to learn what has brought someone to therapy, what concerns feel most pressing, and what goals they would like to work toward. She also welcomes questions and focuses on creating a collaborative, comfortable relationship from the start so clients can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and balance.
