About Kim
Kim Mouti is a licensed independent social worker with 26 years of experience. She practices in Ohio and focuses on supporting people who are juggling parenting and life stress. She meets people where they are and helps them find workable steps forward.
Her background includes long-term clinical work across a range of concerns. She commonly helps people coping with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and the daily strain of parenting.
Background and approach
Kim also works with issues around self-esteem, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her approach draws on several therapeutic styles. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, client-centered listening to understand each person’s view, and cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Dialectical behavior strategies and emotionally-focused methods are available when emotion regulation and relationships need more attention. Sessions are practical and conversational. She aims to reduce overwhelm with clear tools, short experiments, and steady emotional support.
Many clients appreciate a calm, straightforward pace that focuses on goals they choose. Kim offers care in English and accepts international clients. Appointments may be held by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
The intake process begins by selecting Start Therapy, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling according to availability.

How Kim’s approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and parenting. Online sessions can help identify patterns in how people connect, and then practice new ways of relating with partners or children.Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard. In remote conversations this creates space to talk through daily struggles, explore feelings, and decide what changes matter most.
Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, targets thoughts and behaviors with small experiments and homework. Through video or messaging clients can learn to spot thought patterns, try new responses at home, and report back on what worked.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean combining strategies and adjusting them over time based on progress.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper work, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat works for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports short daily coaching and reminders. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work, and busy days.
