Meet Kimberly

My style is very directive offering advice and teaching you skills that offer rapid and long-term change. Because of my extensive experience (more than 20 years in social work), I have many tools in my tool belt to share with you and help you not only feel better but build a life that is sustainably happier for you. I have worked with various populations and all forms of mental health struggles. My approach to therapy is meeting the client where they are at and working with them to build a plan of treatment that works for them. I have specialized training in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Exposure Response Prevention. I'm also a certified yoga instructor.
