Kimberly Slaughter, LPCC

Kimberly Slaughter is an Ohio-licensed counselor who focuses on helping people build confidence and stay motivated. She speaks plainly and meets people where they are. She aims to make starting therapy feel doable and respectful of how hard that first step can be.

Kimberly uses straightforward, practical methods to address low self-esteem, anxiety, stress, and depression. She also supports people facing addictions, career pressures, parenting strain, anger, and major life changes. Sessions are meant to be a place to talk without fear of judgment and to try simple tools that can make daily life easier.

Her practice leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and finds small, testing steps to change patterns. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, focusing on listening closely and following the client’s goals and pace. Both approaches are used in conversational, goal-focused ways rather than long lectures.

With three years of professional experience as an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - Kimberly keeps sessions practical and focused. People can expect clear, manageable strategies and space to reflect on what is working. The aim is to help each person feel more confident handling stress and moving toward goals.

Kimberly works with adults in Ohio and conducts sessions in English. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where clients set the pace and priorities.

Approaches and online options for practical change

Kimberly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and patterns that get in the way of daily life. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes active listening and following the person's own goals and pace in sessions.

Choosing the right way to work is part of therapy. Kimberly treats this as a collaborative process and will help figure out which approach fits based on the person's needs, goals, and preferences. Together they can try different techniques and adjust the focus over time.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are good for longer, face-to-face conversations. Phone sessions can work well when less bandwidth is needed or a quieter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text allow brief updates or weekly check-ins without scheduling a full call. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity between sessions.
