Dr. Kimberlee Kaercher

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


Taking the step to begin therapy takes courage, and I believe the relationship between therapist and client is the foundation of meaningful change. I'm Dr. Kimberlee Kaercher, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and founder of Lumax Counseling Services, LLC. I hold a Ph.D. in Forensic Psychology and a master's degree in counseling, and I have supported children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families across school and clinical settings. I provide a professional, respectful, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel genuinely understood. My background is somewhat unique and informs everything I do. Years of experience as an educator and special education teacher, along with my training in forensic psychology, have given me a deep understanding of behavior, development, trauma, and the many factors that shape a person's life. I bring that perspective into the therapy room with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care for the people I serve.

Whether you are working to strengthen your relationship, healing from trauma, managing anxiety or depression, facing the challenges of a cancer diagnosis, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to face it alone. I would be glad to answer any questions you may have and to talk with you about how we might work together. I look forward to hearing from you and supporting you on the path toward healing and growth.

Sarne Darby

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Pittsburgh, PA


Hi, I’m Sarné (Shar-nay), a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of nursing and psychiatric experience. I believe mental health care should feel supportive, collaborative, and free of judgment. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, stress, and life transitions.

As a professional, mother, and caregiver myself, I understand how overwhelming life can become. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward lasting emotional wellness.

I am committed to lifelong learning and providing care grounded in the latest evidence. I have completed the Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP) training through the Nutritional and Integrative Medicine for Mental Health Professionals program. This advanced training has expanded my knowledge of nutrition, sleep, physical activity, stress management, gut health, and other evidence-informed lifestyle approaches that can complement traditional psychiatric treatment when appropriate. These strategies are thoughtfully integrated into care and are intended to support—not replace—evidence-based psychiatric treatment, including medication management, psychotherapy, and collaborative care.

Whether you’re seeking support for the first time or looking for a provider who takes a whole-person approach to mental health, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing, resilience, and lasting wellness.
