I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with more than 20 years of experience working with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use, life transitions, and complex mental health concerns. My career has included outpatient therapy, intensive outpatient treatment, veterans' mental health, substance use treatment, forensic behavioral health, and clinical leadership. These experiences have taught me that people are rarely defined by a diagnosis or a single difficult chapter in their lives. I try to understand the whole person—their experiences, relationships, strengths, challenges, and what matters most to them. My style is warm, straightforward, collaborative, and practical. I won't simply tell you what you want to hear, but I also won't judge you for where you are. I believe good therapy should give you a place to feel understood while also helping you develop insight, skills, and realistic strategies for moving forward. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT skills, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy. I tailor these approaches to the individual rather than expecting the individual to fit a particular treatment model. You don't need to be in crisis to begin therapy, and you don't need to have everything figured out before you start. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or ready for something to change, therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and begin figuring out what comes next. My goal is for you to leave therapy not only feeling heard, but also feeling more capable of handling your life with greater clarity, confidence, and choice.

Since earning my Master’s in Counseling in 2019, I have partnered with clients across school-linked, residential, and crisis settings. Today, I dedicate my practice to full-time individual therapy, helping adults navigate life’s complex stressors—including relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, and traumatic experiences. I am trained in several specialized modalities to meet you where you are, including: CBT & DBT: To help you connect thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while building tangible skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT): To practice mindfulness and guide you toward living a values-driven life. Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): To safely process trauma, understand its impact, and rebuild a healthy sense of safety, trust, and self-worth. Believing deeply in a whole-body approach to mental health, I also collaborate with you to integrate healthy lifestyle habits that reduce symptoms and support long-term well-being. Together, we will transform difficult obstacles into a meaningful path forward.

I specialize in supporting individuals who carry the weight of trauma, identity-based stress, interpersonal relationship issues, and systemic injustice. My practice is grounded in cultural humility, affirming care, and a profound respect for each person’s unique lived experience. Whether you're exploring your gender identity, healing from relational harm, or navigating life in a world that often misunderstands you—I offer a space where your truth is honored and your healing is possible. To help remove barriers to care, I offer evening (up to 8-9 PM) and weekend appointments (8 AM to 5 PM), recognizing that accessibility is essential—not optional. You deserve support that fits your life, not the other way around. Unfortunately, I do not offer couples or family therapy.

My practice is grounded in the belief that the therapeutic relationship is the essential ingredient for change. Relational therapy prioritizes human connection as the starting point for healing, accessing vulnerabilities, exploring identities, processing trauma, and healing childhood wounds. I have worked in the field of relationship violence, sexual violence, childhood abuse, and interpersonal trauma for over 10 years and am passionate about advocating for survivors' rights and changes to the systems that uphold and enforce gender-based violence.

Hi, I'm Kim. I am a warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth therapist who believes that healing happens through genuine human connection. As an immigrant, bilingual professional, and someone who has navigated significant life transitions and challenges, I understand how difficult it can be to ask for help and carry life's burdens alone. My approach is collaborative, authentic, and nonjudgmental. I strive to create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves while also feeling supported and challenged to grow. I believe that every person has strengths, resilience, and the capacity for change, even when they feel stuck or overwhelmed. In our work together, I combine empathy with practical, evidence-based strategies to help clients better understand themselves, develop healthier coping skills, improve relationships, and move toward the life they want to create. My goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling understood, empowered, and hopeful about their ability to navigate life's challenges.
