I enjoy having Kim Mc Coy as my Psychologist. She is always up beat and very thorough. I look forward to talking to her and confining in her every time we meet. Please don’t let her go anywhere else because I want her to take care of my needs for the upcoming future. Thanks Karyn Bolme

I am new to the area and looking for providers that work with my insurance. Despite that being my main reason for establishing care, Kim and our interactions are what's making me stick around. Right off the bat, Kim was calm, pleasant, and professional, which allowed me to feel more comfortable to be myself. When I told her my needs/goals, she was receptive and it felt like we were a team. I am looking forward to working with/being cared for by Kim.

I appreciate her service being on the floor in mental health facilities so she has seen and heard it all. I think she will provide valuable insight to me.
