About Vickie
Vickie Kimble is a Licensed Professional Counselor who draws on a decade of experience to help people navigate stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, and mood struggles. She writes simply and listens carefully to understand what is most pressing for each person. Vickie aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where parents and individuals can talk through hard moments and consider practical next steps.
Her sessions focus on everyday problems and realistic change.
Background and approach
Vickie uses clear, practical techniques to address low mood, anger, self-esteem, and motivation. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, and the specific stresses that can come from adoption and foster care or aging-related transitions. Vickie includes tools drawn from cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts.
She also uses client-centered listening to make space for each person’s priorities and dialectical behavior ideas to teach coping skills for intense emotions. Mindfulness and motivational strategies are added when people want skills for staying grounded and moving toward goals. Her approach is collaborative.
She works with clients to set small, achievable goals and checks progress along the way. Sessions are practical and paced to each person’s needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. Vickie practices in Texas and communicates in English.
Her background includes helping young adults and adults manage self-harm risks and disruptive mood patterns, and she brings experience supporting people through the emotional work of parenting and life transitions.

Using practical therapies online for parenting and mood
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s priorities. The therapist provides empathic support and follows what matters most to the client, which helps parents and individuals feel heard and plan next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches simple tools to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving around parenting challenges.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance. Those skills can help when anger or mood swings make daily life harder.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to try methods and adjust based on what helps most. Goals, preferences, and the specific problems a person brings guide which techniques are emphasized.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Video is helpful for a full conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suit brief check-ins or ongoing support. This range of formats makes therapy more flexible for parents and people juggling work or caregiving.
