About Kimberly

Kimberly Smiley is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Florida with seven years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship or family struggles. Her work focuses on practical steps that people can try between sessions.

Kimberly writes straightforward goals with each person and adjusts the plan as needed. She uses Systemic Therapy to look at patterns in relationships and how they affect daily life.

Background and approach

Kimberly also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories and rewrite how they see their experiences. Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters most to the client.

Kimberly aims to create an atmosphere of respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She listens for strengths and builds from what is already working. Common issues she works on include attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, commitment doubts, infidelity, divorce and separation, and family of origin conflicts.

She also supports those dealing with midlife questions, workplace stress, and figuring out life purpose. Therapy can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The subscription can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows the therapist's availability.

To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and choose a time that fits their needs.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Kimberly often uses Systemic Therapy to map how people’s relationships and daily routines shape their problems. This approach looks at interaction patterns and helps identify small shifts that change how a system functions. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to pinpoint thoughts that feed anxiety or low mood and to practice behavior experiments that reduce distress.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Kimberly will talk about options during early sessions and adjust methods to match the client’s goals, preferences, and situation. Together they set short-term targets and review progress so the work stays practical and focused.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation when that works best. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging offer frequent, brief support between longer sessions and can help maintain momentum during busy weeks. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit day-to-day life.
