Hi there, I'm Kim!

Are you experiencing depression, anxiety, or disappointment? Feeling the need for more connection? Are you working through relationship issues, conflict, or trauma? We can work together to strengthen your coping skills, enhance your ability to achieve your unique goals, and improve your sense of purpose, motivation, and efficacy.

My focus

After listening to understand your thoughts and challenges, we work together to select goals upon which to focus. Our work includes reviewing your experiences and emotions, exploring strategies, and checking in regularly to assess what is working well versus what adjustments we need to make towards achieving your goals.

My approach

I seek to establish an atmosphere of empathy and positive regard. I combine approaches from object relations, humanistic, psychodynamic, and evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solutions-focused therapy. By careful listening, reflecting, and eliciting unspoken emotions, I ensure you feel heard and understood.
