Kimberly Lincoln, LMHC, LCMHC

Kimberly Lincoln is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She is licensed in Florida and North Carolina and works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting struggles, and anger. Kimberly also addresses trauma, addictions, LGBT issues, grief, intimacy concerns, and career-related stress.

She spent much of her career working with children and youth involved in the child welfare system and with families stabilizing crises. That work included helping families find healthier patterns and manage urgent problems so longer term goals could move forward. She has also worked with women who survived childhood sexual trauma, people in the LGBTQ community, couples, and men dealing with codependency and addictions.

Kimberly uses a range of approaches to match what a client needs in the moment. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to focus on what each person brings to sessions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and behaviors tied to mood and stress. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies when managing strong emotions or improving coping skills.

Her style is practical and flexible. If a pressing stressor appears, she will address it so clients can return to longer term goals. Sessions aim to reduce distress and improve daily functioning through clear skills and focused conversation.

Kimberly’s goal is to help people feel better in the areas that brought them to therapy. She asks clients about current needs and adjusts the plan as those needs change.
