Kimberly Neal, LPC, LCMHC

Kimberly Neal is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 19 years of experience. She is licensed in Florida and Georgia and offers therapy for adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, and related concerns.

Neal blends practical, evidence-based techniques with a focus on how early relationships and life events affect current behavior. Sessions are straightforward and action-oriented. She uses tools from behavioral approaches alongside psychodynamic ideas about patterns that repeat across relationships.

She teaches concrete skills such as mindfulness and relaxation exercises, role-playing to practice new responses, and behavioral activation to increase helpful daily routines. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test them against real-world evidence. Motivational interviewing is included when clients want help shifting substance use or other entrenched behaviors.

Neal has worked across many settings over her career, including community mental health, corrections, child welfare, and with people living with serious mental illness or health-related disabilities. That experience informs practical problem-solving, safety-minded planning, and ways to handle intense emotions like anger without escalating conflict.

She also addresses family-of-origin issues, communication problems, caregiver stress, and the emotional effects of chronic illness. People who come to her can expect clear tools, straightforward feedback, and exercises to practice between sessions.

Sessions are conducted in English. International clients may be accepted, and costs vary with location using a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
