Kimberly Richards is a Christian and a licensed social worker based in Michigan who brings 11 years of outpatient experience in mental health. She holds licensure in Michigan as a Master Social Worker (MI LMSW, license number 6801093102) and in Arizona as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW, license number LCSW-22012).
Throughout her career she has worked with people facing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, emotion regulation, adult and childhood trauma, emotional, verbal, and sexual abuse, relationship and parenting problems, ADHD, PTSD, and grief and loss. Her practice addresses both common stressors and more complex histories of trauma and loss.
Her therapeutic style is warm, interactive, and grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Kimberly blends a Christ-focused, client-centered outlook with evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, EMDR, and Trauma-Focused Therapy, all guided by Biblical principles and a desire to help people heal and move forward. She affirms that clients are the experts in their own lives and aims to walk alongside them as they pursue positive change.
Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For everyday concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
A major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the manner that suits them best, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility often makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
All therapists involved are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists at any time if they are seeking a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical, accessible way to pursue support for common mental health concerns while maintaining continuity of care.
