About Kimberley
Kimberley Rodriguez-Lepp is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) licensed in Florida with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, addictions, self-esteem, parenting challenges, sleep problems, and depression. Kimberley also works with family-of-origin issues and related topics like attachment and abandonment.
In sessions she uses everyday language and practical strategies. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy to help people notice patterns and make concrete changes. Conversations often include looking at how early family roles and expectations still affect current relationships and decisions.
Kimberley helps people improve communication, manage difficult emotions like anger, and reduce compulsive behaviors linked to addiction. She pays attention to physical health concerns that interact with mood, including chronic pain and sleep disruption. She also supports people dealing with life changes related to aging, caregiving, cancer, and blended family realities.
Her work tends to be straightforward and goal-oriented. She uses practical exercises, thought records, values-based planning, and emotion-focused interventions depending on what a person needs. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps that fit into everyday life.
Clients can expect a respectful, down-to-earth approach that looks at patterns coming from the family of origin while focusing on current behavior and choices. Kimberley helps people build clearer communication, stronger boundaries, and more consistent coping skills.
How Kimberley adapts therapy approaches for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions in line with those values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and getting unstuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. CBT is practical for worry, sleep problems, and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on how emotions shape reactions and communication and can help improve how people respond in close relationships.Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. Kimberley will talk with the client about goals, what feels useful, and what methods seem workable. Together they adjust the plan as progress and needs emerge rather than sticking rigidly to one method.
Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how sessions are scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and medical appointments, and it allows for shorter check-ins or longer sessions when needed. Some people find phone sessions are simpler when bandwidth is limited, while video can help with communication practice. Discussing practical needs helps keep sessions effective and usable in day-to-day life.
