Kim Moses
I received my Master of Social Work degree in 1999; and since the completion of my degree, I have worked in an array of settings such as child welfare, geriatric case management, end-of-life care, community mental health with adults, teens and children; and addiction recovery. While I have worked with people of all ages who have presented with a variety of physical and mental health problems, I have an extensive background in substance abuse treatment. I have a knack for translating 12-step terminology into more practical terms as it relates to psychotherapy. As a person in long-term recovery myself, I have learned (and wholeheartedly believe) that it takes all possible resources to stay clean and sober, and I can help you find the tools to accomplish long-term recovery. I have also worked in the hospice/palliative care field, and am sensitive to the psychological challenges that arise from addressing our mortality and the ripple effect of serious physical health problems. As a member of the queer community, I can help support and guide you in any issues you are having navigating any related issues you may have. Whatever you are struggling with right now, my promise to you is that I am here to help you identify the root of your problems; and more importantly to find ways to alleviate the distress you have been experiencing, and to establish both short and long-term solutions.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first several sessions, we will focus on learning more about you and your background. We will complete a biopsychosocial assessment so I can gain an understanding of how you grew up, what's important to you, and the unique challenges you have faced in your life.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am committed to openness and transparency throughout the process, and will answer any questions you have about the work we are doing and why we are doing it the way we are. I am direct but not threatening, and gentle when gentle is needed. My biggest strength is the experience I have--working for many years in different aspects of social work and counseling. I have basic understanding of many medical and mental health problems, have a genuine curiosity and interest in people, and openly acknowledge the desire and need to learn about you FROM you (not from a textbook or workshop). I don't take an authoritative approach and will not "tell you what to do"--this is a collaborative relationship.
