About Kimberly

Kimberly Quintero is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with 30 years of clinical experience. She describes her work as warm and interactive, guiding people as they find practical ways to feel better. Kim emphasizes simple, doable steps that clients can try between sessions to build lasting change.

Kim's background includes work in outpatient mental health centers, a university student counseling center, and as an elementary school counselor. That variety shaped her approach to common problems like anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting stress.

Background and approach

She also supports people coping with trauma and abuse, relationship issues, anger, low self-esteem, career concerns, and big life changes. In sessions she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focusing on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, helping people process distressing memories when that fits their needs.

Kim encourages practice between meetings so new skills become habits. Her style is straightforward and compassionate. She listens, offers feedback, and helps clients set concrete goals.

The aim is to help people leave sessions with clear next steps they can use in daily life. Outside of work Kim enjoys time at the lake and the ocean. She has been married for many years and is a parent and grandparent.

She welcomes conversations about how therapy might help and supports each person in finding what works for them.

Online support

How CBT and EMDR translate to online care

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavior changes. In online sessions this looks like talking through specific situations, practicing new responses, and setting short exercises to try between meetings. EMDR helps people process distressing memories by pairing focused attention with bilateral stimulation; in virtual sessions the therapist guides that process step by step and checks in often to make sure each person feels able to proceed.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that seem helpful, and adjust the plan over time. Clients and clinician decide together whether CBT, EMDR, or a mix fits best for the issue at hand.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins, symptom tracking, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day while keeping consistent progress.
