About me

Kimberly has a wonderful and warm energy. She approaches mental health challenges from a place of understanding of cultural religious and social obstacles. She integrates her knowledge and expertise of many different aspects of mental health in a comprehensive and targeted way that allows me to challenge my inner thoughts and understand the world and forces around me, ultimately leading to personal growth and conflict resolution. I am lucky to have her as my therapist and guide :).
