About Kimberly
Kimberly Hancock is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, depression, and anger. Kimberly also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep problems, self-esteem struggles, and concerns tied to work or life change.
She aims to make sessions a straightforward place to talk about what is happening and how it feels. Conversations focus on practical ways to reduce reactivity, manage upsetting thoughts, and improve everyday coping. She encourages honest discussion of relationship patterns and how those patterns affect mood and behavior.
Kimberly draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build skills for handling stressful moments and to spot triggers that fuel resentment or outbursts. Sessions include learning concrete tools to calm down, set boundaries, and repair interactions after conflict. She also works on sleep, concentration, and burnout when these are adding to frustration.
She has experience supporting people in the LGBT community and those navigating ADHD-related challenges alongside other concerns. Kimberly frames progress as small, practical changes that add up over time rather than a single quick fix.
To begin, she asks clients to describe what they want to change and then prioritizes simple steps that can be practiced between sessions. This approach keeps the work focused and actionable while tracking visible improvements week to week.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Kimberly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that teach clear skills and strategies. One common approach she uses focuses on recognizing and changing unhelpful thinking patterns to reduce worry and reactive behavior. This helps when anger is driven by automatic negative thoughts or assumptions about others.Another approach emphasizes learning practical coping skills for stressful moments. That includes breathing and grounding exercises, short behavioral experiments, and steps to calm down before responding. These tools are useful for managing workplace frustration, relationship flare-ups, and sleep disruption related to stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each client to identify goals and test which techniques fit best. She adjusts the plan over time based on how well the strategies are working for everyday situations.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins during work breaks, and remove commuting time. Discussing symptoms and practicing new skills during remote sessions can still produce useful, practical changes when combined with work between sessions.
