Kimberlee VanBurch, LCSW

Kimberlee VanBurch is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and caregiving strain. She supports those dealing with grief, relationship and family concerns, ADHD, and life changes. Kimberlee focuses on practical coping skills and short-term goals people can use right away.

She takes a calm, person-centered approach and adapts methods to each person's needs. Sessions emphasize listening, building on strengths, and finding steps that fit daily life. Kimberlee uses techniques from cognitive behavioral work, mindfulness, and acceptance-based approaches to reduce symptoms and improve routine coping.

Her background includes 15 years of practice in clinical social work across community and clinical settings. That experience has shaped her focus on culturally aware care and attention to how life context shapes mental health. She blends several methods rather than sticking to one model.

In therapy she often mixes skill-based exercises, reflective conversation, and experiential methods to address trauma, sleep problems, or persistent worry. For people affected by chronic pain or caregiver stress she works to identify realistic strategies for pacing and self-care. She also supports those navigating aging and geriatric issues and the transitions that bring.

Kimberlee aims for collaboration on goals and plans. She helps people clarify what matters to them, set achievable steps, and track progress over time. The focus is on usable, everyday changes that make life feel more manageable.

How Kimberlee’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed actions even when thoughts or feelings are hard. It helps with life changes, low motivation, and ongoing worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and awareness practices to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberlee will talk with each person about their goals and preferences. Together they will try methods that fit the situation and adjust the plan as progress is made. This keeps therapy collaborative and responsive to changing needs.
