Kimberly Elder is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Missouri who has been working in the helping field over the last 15 years. She has experience working with adults, couples, children, and adolescents who were coping with a wide range of concerns. Kimberly is an empathetic person whose goal is to provide a safe space for clients where they can feel heard and empowered.

Kimberly’s counseling technique is warm and accepting. She utilizes a personalized approach to counseling which is non-judgmental, and client directed. Often Kimberly will use solution-focused interventions which identify the obstacles one is experiencing in their life and work with the client to tailor a treatment plan that is specific to their needs.

Another intervention she frequently uses is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) which provides clients with tools to cope with life stressors, negative thoughts and feelings, interpersonal relationships and dysregulation of emotions. DBT allows the client to be mindful of current emotions and feelings and helps regulate those emotions by applying distress tolerance techniques. DBT also provides different communication techniques that be helpful in family conflicts and/or relationship issues.

The approach Kimberly takes in her practice is specifically tailored to the clients needs in the moment. Only the client can determine the best course of action to take, she is there to assist you in your journey of life.
