Meet Kim

I’m passionate about integrating mind-body practices into therapy in ways that feel grounded, accessible, and trauma-informed. Through mindfulness, breath awareness, and somatic reflection, I help clients notice the subtle cues that shape their emotional experiences—signals from the body that hold deep wisdom. Using mindfulness-based therapy, self-compassion practices, and EMDR when appropriate, I support clients in building self-awareness and cultivating a deeper, more trusting relationship with themselves.
