About Kimberly
Dr. Carroll emphasizes simple, teachable skills that people can use between meetings. She often starts by looking at how thoughts shape feelings and actions. From that point she helps people practice different ways of responding so choices match their real goals.
Her approach is collaborative and direct. She prefers honest feedback and works with clients to set goals that matter to them. When a case needs extra input, she asks permission to consult with trusted colleagues to broaden perspectives.
In sessions she uses methods that help people notice thoughts, test assumptions, and build coping tools. Many of the techniques translate to everyday situations so clients can continue using them later. She also brings a down-to-earth sense of humor when appropriate to ease tense moments.
Dr. Carroll earned a doctorate in psychology in 2002 and has been a licensed psychologist since 2005. Her practice has focused on adolescents and adults, and she draws on a range of proven therapy approaches to match each person’s needs. She works in English and practices in Arizona.
