About Kim

Kim Class is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and intimacy issues. She also supports those dealing with career stress, addictions, depression, and the emotional fallout from life changes. Her work includes attention to attachment concerns, blended family stress, caregiver strain, and divorce and separation issues.

She brings 28 years of professional experience in a mix of nonprofit and private settings. She currently manages a private practice while also working as an administrator at a local agency. That combination keeps her grounded in both direct care and program-level perspectives.

In sessions she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. Conversations focus on what matters to the client and on small, practical steps that fit daily life. She uses approaches such as client-centered methods, emotionally focused work, motivational interviewing, narrative techniques, and psychodynamic ideas to guide those conversations.

Her style is collaborative and steady. She works with people to clarify goals and to try ways of coping that feel manageable. She recognizes the courage it takes to start therapy and encourages straightforward, honest talk about progress and setbacks.

Because she works in multiple settings, scheduling can vary. Prospective clients are invited to use the site process to match and schedule, and to message if they need timing that differs from posted availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings. It helps people feel heard and guides conversations around their priorities. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in relationships and feelings, aiming to help people notice and change responses that cause distance or pain. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone wants to make a change but feels stuck, using questions and reflection to build commitment.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Over a few sessions she will check in and adjust the focus based on what is helpful and what is not.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time, which helps fit therapy into busy days. It also allows for shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule or lower-bandwidth sessions when video is difficult. Licensed professionals can use these flexible arrangements to keep therapy practical and consistent without promising any specific outcome.
