I’m a warm, compassionate therapist who believes you don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out for support. I became a therapist because I’ve seen how anxiety, burnout, life transitions, and the pressure to meet everyone else’s expectations can impact how we see ourselves and move through life. My own experiences, along with my professional background, have shaped the way I connect with clients. I understand that sometimes being the “strong one” can become exhausting, and that setting boundaries or putting yourself first can bring up a lot of guilt. In therapy, I want you to feel comfortable being your whole self without judgment. I take a collaborative and down-to-earth approach, meeting you where you are and helping you develop tools and insight that feel realistic for your life. My hope is that therapy becomes a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and begin creating a life that feels more balanced and authentic to you.

Hi, I’m Kim, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience supporting adults through trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and difficult life transitions. I am trained in EMDR and have a particular interest in helping clients process painful experiences and move toward healing at a pace that feels safe and manageable. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. I believe meaningful therapy begins with feeling safe, heard, respected, and free from judgment. Together, we can explore how past experiences, loss, relationships, thoughts, and emotions may be affecting your present life while building healthier ways of coping and responding. I integrate EMDR with evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. My work emphasizes emotional regulation, self-awareness, healthy boundaries, communication, self-compassion, and practical coping skills. Trauma and grief can affect how we see ourselves, relate to others, and navigate everyday life. Loss can also bring complicated emotions, including sadness, guilt, anger, confusion, or a sense of feeling disconnected from yourself or others. I provide space to work through these experiences without pressure to “move on” before you are ready. I approach this work with careful attention to emotional safety, preparation, stabilization, and readiness. Therapy does not need to be rushed. My goal is to meet you where you are, help you understand what you are carrying, and support you in building greater confidence, resilience, and trust in yourself as you move forward.
