About Kimberley

Kimberley Premo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 26 years of experience. She works with adults who are carrying strong feelings of guilt, shame, anxiety, stress, and grief. She also addresses addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem, and life changes.

She uses conversational, practical sessions that focus on what feels most pressing for each person. Conversations look at thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that keep painful feelings cycling. She pays attention to how family, faith, and past hurts can leave lingering shame or self-blame.

Kimberley adapts the way she talks and plans work to fit individual needs. Sessions may include looking at coping skills, ways to change unhelpful habits, and steps for rebuilding trust with oneself. She aims to help people find clearer choices when guilt or regret feels overwhelming.

Her background includes long-term clinical work in Texas settings. That experience shapes a direct, steady style focused on practical steps and clearer thinking. She brings many years of practice to complex issues such as trauma, addiction, and chronic stress.

People who come to her often want guidance on repairing relationships, managing strong emotions, and moving forward after loss or mistakes. She asks about immediate concerns and helps people plan the next small steps. To begin, she asks clients to describe what matters most and what they hope to change.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit

Kimberley works with evidence-based techniques that focus on changing thoughts and behaviors. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different, more balanced responses; this can reduce the intensity of guilt and shame over time. Another approach targets habits and coping strategies so people can replace harmful behaviors with more effective routines, which is useful for addiction and compulsive responses.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan based on how it is going.

Confirm the exact online session options before you book, because the biography does not list formats. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or evenings. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins when less screen time is needed, while video sessions allow for more in-depth conversation and nonverbal cues. Many people find online sessions helpful for maintaining consistency when juggling work, family, or health demands.
