About Kipp
Kipp Trembley is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who centers therapy on the person in front of him. He uses a client-centered way of working and invites people to explore thoughts, feelings, and patterns at a steady pace. Conversations are practical and focused on finding new skills and clearer direction for everyday life.
Kipp draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find reasons and motivation to change. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to address the ways thoughts and relationships shape behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools show up when helping people reframe unhelpful thinking or build new habits.
His practice often supports people dealing with depression, anxiety, grief, anger, and trauma. He also helps with addictions, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. Additional areas of focus include attachment issues, codependency, forgiveness, and managing impulsivity.
Sessions may include active interventions when useful, such as suggestions, guided imagery or therapeutic hypnosis, journaling prompts, mindfulness practice, dream work, and homework tailored to each person. Kipp emphasizes collaboration and asks people to be active participants in their own work.
Kipp has worked in mental health for 19 years and holds a Washington LMHC license. He holds regular weekday office hours and communicates during those times. Sessions are conducted in English. To begin, users follow the site Start Therapy flow to complete a short questionnaire and schedule time with him.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. Online sessions using this approach often involve open questions, reflective listening, and planning small steps toward a client’s goals. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while choosing actions that match their values; this can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current responses and helps people build different ways of relating to others and to themselves.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different ideas together. That collaborative process helps decide whether Motivational Interviewing, ACT, attachment work, or a mix of methods fits best for a person’s concerns.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. In general, doing therapy remotely can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people prefer the option to focus on voice work rather than video, or to pair in-session exploration with short between-session exercises like journaling and mindfulness. Discussing practical needs during the first scheduling step will clarify how to make online work for everyday life. -
