About Kimberly
Kimberly Osmanagic is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with 18 years of experience.

Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and practical. The aim is to find small, useful shifts that make daily life easier. Kimberly draws on Narrative Therapy to help clients reframe the stories they tell about themselves.
She also uses Client-Centered approaches to create a warm, accepting space. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness tools are woven in when they fit the client’s goals. She has worked across health coaching and counseling roles, which informs a broad, holistic view of wellbeing.
That background helps when concerns include body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, or co-occurring issues like substance use and mood disorders. Sessions may focus on improving communication, setting boundaries, reducing unhelpful thought patterns, and building routines for better sleep and mood. Kimberly supports people who want practical strategies along with a deeper look at the personal stories that shape behavior.

Online session options
How Narrative and Practical Methods Work Online
Kimberly often uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves. This approach involves talking through episodes in life to separate problems from personal identity, which can help with issues like depression, shame, and relationship patterns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and supporting the person’s own goals in a nonjudgmental way.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, offered when helpful, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behavior in small steps. CBT can be practical for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood regulation. Kimberly tailors these methods to each person rather than applying a single approach to everyone.
Finding the right fit is part of the work. She will collaborate with clients to decide which approaches match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean combining Narrative conversations with CBT exercises or adding mindfulness practices for stress and sleep. The choice evolves as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full sessions and richer interaction. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit short updates, ongoing support between sessions, or those who prefer written communication. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
