Her practice addresses many specialties such as stress, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, grief, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue, among others.

Kimberly’s therapeutic style is warm, engaging, and non-judgmental, focused on identifying and building each person’s strengths. She uses an integrative approach that draws on cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies along with solution-focused work, motivational interviewing, ecological systems perspectives, and trauma-informed care. She aims to meet clients where they are and to form therapeutic alliances rooted in respect and collaboration. Outside of practice she enjoys literature, travel, culture, and spending quality time with her son, and she looks forward to supporting clients as they pursue their goals at a comfortable pace.
