About Kimberly

Dr. Kimberly Walsh is a Utah Psychologist (UT Psychologist 117391-2501) with 32 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, parenting concerns, grief, and mood conditions. She also supports people dealing with career pressure, life changes, and issues related to identity and relationships.

She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help clients make practical changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a core part of her work, aimed at shifting unhelpful thinking and routines. She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice their reactions and reduce reactivity.

Dr. Walsh has a long record of working with a wide age range, from children through seniors, and has experience supporting parents with behavior management and family relationship concerns. Her background includes work with bipolar disorder and neuropsychological issues following traumatic brain injury or other conditions.

Her training includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and English Literature from Cornell University, a Master’s in Counseling from Florida State University, a Doctor of Psychology from Florida Tech with a Clinical Psychology major, post-graduate training in neuropsychological assessment, and a postdoctoral Master’s in Clinical Psychopharmacology. Those academic steps inform an assessment-focused approach when needed.

Outside of clinical work she enjoys cooking and baking, caring for companion animals, organic gardening, yoga, kickboxing, and a meditation practice. She draws on practical life skills and routine-building strategies when helping people address anger and everyday frustration.

How Dr. Walsh uses CBT and Mindfulness online

Dr. Walsh often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts and helps people try small changes that reduce anger and anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to notice impulses and lower reactivity in tense moments.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, mindfulness, or both make sense based on their goals, current challenges, and daily routine. That shared decision shapes session focus and homework between meetings.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how she is working online. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full appointment is not needed. They also let people practice skills in real-life settings and review real situations that came up between visits.
