Kimberly Hinkie, LPC
Therapist | ADHD, Emotional Regulation & Anxiety | Chronic Pain & BPD Support
"You don't have to figure it all out alone."
Life can feel exhausting when your mind won't slow down, your emotions feel overwhelming, or your body seems to be working against you. Whether you're navigating anxiety, ADHD, chronic health challenges, relationship struggles, or intense emotions that are difficult to manage, therapy can provide a space to better understand yourself and develop tools that create meaningful change.
Kimberly Hinkie, LPC, is a former educator who brings warmth, patience, and practical problem-solving into the counseling process. Her passion for mental health began through personal family experiences that helped her recognize the importance of compassionate support and accessible mental health care. Today, she is dedicated to helping clients feel understood, empowered, and capable of navigating life's challenges with greater confidence.
Kimberly works with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults experiencing anxiety, ADHD, emotional regulation difficulties, depression, bipolar disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), chronic pain, autoimmune-related mental health concerns, and compulsive or impulsive behaviors. She is particularly passionate about helping individuals who often feel misunderstood, overwhelmed, or frustrated by patterns that seem difficult to change.
Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, narrative therapy, psychoeducation, and coping skills development, Kimberly tailors treatment to each client's unique needs. Her approach combines practical strategies with genuine compassion, helping clients build emotional awareness, strengthen coping skills, and develop healthier ways of responding to life's challenges.
Clients often describe Kimberly as down-to-earth, approachable, and easy to talk to. Her calm presence, light-hearted sense of humor, and ability to create a safe, welcoming environment help clients feel comfortable discussing even the most difficult topics. She believes therapy should be a place where people feel supported while also gaining the tools needed to create lasting change.
Kimberly understands that healing isn't about becoming a different person—it's about learning to better understand yourself, navigate challenges more effectively, and build a life that feels more manageable and fulfilling.
