About Kimberly

Dr. Kimberly Walsh is a Utah Psychologist (UT Psychologist 117391-2501) with 32 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, parenting concerns, grief, trauma and related life changes. She offers clinical work for adults and has experience related to family and parenting issues as described in her biography.

Dr. Walsh uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her sessions. She prefers practical, straightforward work that looks at thoughts, behaviors and everyday routines. Sessions often include skill-building for managing mood, panic, anger, and work or family stressors.

Her background includes a Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology and post-graduate training in neuropsychological assessment and clinical psychopharmacology. These inform her approach when assessing cognitive or mood-related difficulties, and when helping clients understand patterns tied to brain injury or medical conditions.

Parents and adult children may consult about parenting strain, communication problems, adoption and foster care concerns, or how to cope with family-of-origin issues. She also lists work on LGBT concerns, compassion fatigue, and career-related stress among areas she addresses.

Her practical style emphasizes clear strategies - for example, behavior changes and mindfulness practices - to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking and follow the site's process to schedule an initial appointment.

How sessions work

How CBT and Mindfulness are used in online sessions

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and changing the behaviors that follow. In practice this means setting small experiments, trying new ways of responding, and tracking what works to reduce anxiety, panic, or low mood.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of the present moment. These practices can help with stress, anger regulation, and persistent worry by building short daily habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and will adjust methods based on what helps most. That makes the work collaborative rather than fixed from the start.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and mindfulness practices for remote sessions so they fit into everyday life without requiring long blocks of time.
