Kim Simms

My communication style

I strive to provide a supportive, open, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where a client and I can explore what's going on and pinpoint the right treatment options that we can navigate together.

My journey to mental healthcare

Therapy has always found me in many different forms- whether it's been with my closest family/friends, co-workers, or complete strangers. I ultimately want to be someone's support and cheerleader, no matter what is going on in their lives. I enjoy being the empathic ear and empowering my clients to grow and develop into the person they want to be.

My goals for you

Goal setting with clients should be collaborative. I encourage my clients to create and prioritize goals that are most important to them. After that, we make a plan on how to achieve these goals in a realistic way and timeline that the client is comfortable with.

Our first session

In our first session, clients should expect an intake that includes discussions on confidentiality and completing a full background assessment. During the initial sessions, I also like to take some time getting to know each of my clients by building comfort and trust as we continue to meet with one another.
