About Kimberly

Dr. Kimberly Walsh is a Utah Psychologist (UT Psychologist 117391-2501) with 32 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, mood disorders including bipolar and depression, and concerns related to family and parenting. Sessions address practical problems like anger, career stress, grief, and coping with life changes.

In her work she combines straightforward methods to help people change patterns that get in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Mindfulness-based tools are used to reduce reactivity and improve focus in daily life.

Dr. Walsh has experience with adoption and foster care issues, aging and geriatric concerns, and family of origin issues that continue to shape adult choices. She also works with people facing isolation, guilt and shame, and financial stressors that affect mood and decision making.

She has provided care to a wide age range over her career and can assist parents with behavioral management for children and teens as well as family relationship problems. Her background includes assessment work and training in psychopharmacology alongside clinical practice.

Outside of practice she spends time on cooking and baking, gardening, yoga and meditation, and enjoys time with companion animals. These interests inform a practical approach to balancing daily life and mental health.

How CBT and Mindfulness are used in online sessions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and test thoughts that increase stress or low mood. Online CBT work often includes setting small experiments, tracking patterns, and practicing new responses between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment attention and simple exercises to reduce reactivity and improve concentration, which can lower ongoing anxiety and mood swings.

Deciding which methods to use happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust approaches based on what fits the client's needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps choose whether CBT techniques, mindfulness practice, or a mix makes the most sense.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or a session that avoids travel time. It can also allow consistent follow-up and practice of skills between meetings while working with a licensed professional.
