Hello I'm Kimberly Walker-DeMattei, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I've been working with children, teens, and individuals experiencing grief, loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, divorce, parenting, relationship issues, LGBTQ+ and gender issues for the past ten years. I currently provide therapy for individuals 12 years and older via telehealth. I also have a background in early childhood education as well as working with people with cultural and racial injustices as well as others who have been marginalized or discriminated against. I have an open mind and compassionate heart.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then start to address the specific challenges you're facing. We will review any history and specifics that you and I feel are important to know first and foremost. This will help me create an individual plan for us to work through in follow up sessions. I look forward to supporting you to create the change you want.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My experience working with many people over the past several years has taught me to learn to create a supportive plan to identify the root cause of of challenges and then develop a plan to progress towards collaborative goals and healthy changes. Coming to therapy can be the first step to learning to take care of yourself for many people and in a new way. It may also be due to a new issue that has just come up. It often takes time, patience, and a level of self worth to value working on oneself. Being self aware, learning to have compassion for yourself and you loved ones can also be life changing.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I have a wealth of life experiences as a parent, grandparent, and woman. I know life can be unpredictable and very challenging. I have worked with people from many backgrounds, cultures, and identities. I am open, compassionate, curious, and willing to guide and support my clients to find solutions, process their innermost thoughts, overcome, cope with their challenges as well as create their desired changes in order to live with self awareness and wellness. I work in a strength based way and see the potential for growth and change in everyone.
