About Kimberly
Kimberly O'Day is a Colorado-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 15 years of social work experience in community mental health. She has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, LGBTQ+ related issues, motivation and self-esteem. Kimberly also lists life purpose among her focus areas.
She served in the Army and lived overseas, then settled in Colorado. Her background includes volunteer work at an equine rescue and a certificate in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy. Those experiences shape how she listens and what she notices about people under pressure.
In sessions she treats people as the experts on their own story. She uses practical therapy methods to help people manage mood and behavior, talk through addictive patterns, and build confidence. Conversations tend to be direct and focused on what the person wants to change.
Kimberly draws from client-centered work alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior therapy skills. She also uses motivational interviewing to explore readiness for change and to support steps toward goals like clearer priorities or healthier routines.
People often come to her when a career shift, relationship change, or health setback leaves them unsure what comes next. She helps break larger concerns into manageable steps and focuses on skills people can practice between sessions.
Approaches used and what online sessions cover
Kimberly incorporates client-centered therapy to focus on each person's perspective and priorities. That approach emphasizes listening, reflecting what matters to the person, and building from their own strengths to address stress and uncertainty.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical behavior changes. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation by teaching skills people can practice between sessions.
Finding the right method is part of the work together. Kimberly treats approach selection as collaborative - she will help decide which techniques match a person's goals, needs, and preferences and adjust them over time.
