About Kimbalie
Kimbalie (Kim) Commissiong is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 20 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, mood disorders, and adjustments after major life changes. Kim also addresses issues such as parenting strain, sleep problems, anger, ADHD, and coping with career transitions.
Kim uses a straightforward, interactive counseling style. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and practical steps a person can try between meetings. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with solution-focused methods and motivational interviewing to help people make concrete changes. Narrative and mindfulness approaches are also part of her work when they fit the goals.
In the room she talks through patterns that started in the family of origin and how those patterns show up now. Conversations look at communication habits, expectations, and role dynamics from childhood that still influence adult choices. She offers ways to test new behaviors and notice what changes in relationships and mood.
Her experience includes supporting people through divorce, loss, immigration-related stress, and first responder challenges. Kim draws on two decades of practice to offer practical tools for managing anxiety, improving sleep, and facing midlife or career transitions.
Sessions are practical and goal oriented, with plans adjusted as progress is made. People who want clear strategies and regular check-ins may find this approach useful. To begin, visitors are asked to follow the site’s intake flow to match and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept up in them. It can be useful for reducing anxiety, improving sleep, and regaining focus during stressful days. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to test and change them. CBT often helps with anxiety, mood problems, and managing reactions learned in the family of origin. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change and helps resolve mixed feelings about making those changes.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use a mix of skill-building exercises, mindfulness practices, and behavioral experiments that translate well to remote work, while adjusting pacing and homework based on how a session goes.
