About

Kimberly Smith is a licensed professional counselor in Alabama (AL LPC 4056) with 14 years of clinical experience. Over the course of her career she has served in rehabilitation counseling as well as mental health and substance abuse settings, gaining a broad range of professional experience.

She has worked with people facing borderline intellectual functioning, substance abuse, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, depression, and co-occurring disorders. In addition, she provides guidance on stress management techniques and effective coping strategies for anxiety, addiction, trauma, parenting challenges, and complicated grief.

Although her work has followed many paths, her central focus remains helping clients move forward - toward hope, toward renewed dreams, and toward lives they may not have thought possible. When someone feels stuck or powerless because of the circumstances that brought them to counseling, she welcomes the opportunity to help clear the path ahead.

Her clinical approaches include person-centered, cognitive behavioral, and solution-focused methods. Kimberly believes life experiences shape emotional life and perceptions of reality, and she approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She tailors conversations and treatment plans to meet each individual’s specific needs and aims to support and empower clients as they take courageous steps toward change.

She looks forward to assisting individuals in moving forward.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

Many people ask whether online therapy can genuinely help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility. People can connect with their therapist in the way that feels most comfortable - by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility often makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.

Each therapist available is a licensed professional, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they want a different fit. Online therapy offers a convenient way to access licensed care while maintaining choices about how to engage.
