My practice includes supporting individuals through transitions, grief, depression, chronic pain, and complex social service needs.

Welcome! I am Kimberly. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 14 years of experience providing therapy.

First of all, I love what I do and to witness the positive changes clients make in their lives as a result of choosing therapy to help them accomplish what they want. Often the goal is to achieve symptom relief so as to not be overwhelmed by anxiety, mood disorders or be better able to manage the challenges of ADHD. Sometimes there is not a specific outcome identified but a need for ongoing support for dealing with life transitions or difficult people. Sometimes clients use therapy as a confidential sounding board where they can talk to an objective outsider about situations and sort out their perspective. I offer various ways to see and respond to situations that might otherwise not be considered. Your opinion as a client is the most important one and I will also honestly provide mine when asked for. I believe therapy can actually be something that you can look forward to and an opportunity to learn new skills to use long after you discontinue, and we can even have some fun and laughs along the journey.

You’ve done therapy before. You got insight. Maybe even some relief. And then you ended up right back in the same patterns. That’s the work I do. I work with adults dealing with eating disorders, trauma, burnout, and the kind of “functional” that looks fine from the outside but is not sustainable. Most of my clients are not new to therapy. They are frustrated that what helped didn’t hold. I have over 25 years of experience across inpatient, outpatient, and private practice, including higher levels of care in eating disorder treatment. I am licensed in Virginia, Maryland, and North Carolina, and I hold advanced certifications in eating disorders, trauma, and DBT. This is a telehealth practice designed to be structured, direct, and for people who are done circling the same insight without change.

I have worked in various settings, such as schools, community medical centers and individual counseling offices with people from all walks of life.

I focus on a person-centered approach to create a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment where your voice is prioritized. I use techniques such as motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and positive psychology to help you discover your strengths, set meaningful goals, and foster lasting well-being. You deserve to be heard, understood, and empowered, and I am honored to accompany you on this journey. I have a listing on Psychology Today where you can learn more.
