I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience helping clients. I am a proud Appalachian-American that was born and raised deep in the mountains of Upper Northeast TN. Although my life experience is about what one would expect from this area (cue banjo music), my work experience is vastly different. I have been fortunate to get to work with individuals from all walks of life. I have worked with clients (thanks to the internet) from all over the world, various cultures, religious beliefs, race, gender spectrums and socioeconomic status. One thing I have learned in my work with all of these individuals is that although each of their stories are unique, ultimately, they all seek/want the same core things. I think much of my success in working with a wide assortment of clients is that I attempt to be open, understanding, curious and cultivate a nonjudgmental atmosphere for our sessions. The working relationship between a therapist and their client is a key factor to client’s achieving treatment goals.

I have approximately 30 years of experience in virtually all clinical settings. I began my career working in a juvenile penitentiary (referred to as a 'youth development center) and after almost 6 years, left that setting and moved on to new opportunities. Along the way, I worked with group homes, foster homes, substance abuse treatment programs, and even provided treatment in a sexual offender treatment program. In 2004 I went solely into private practice and currently operate two offices. I also provided on-site services to businesses that suffer a death or other disruptive event; I have provided over 170 of these services in four states during the last several years. While you don't need any faith to see me, I also offer Christian Counseling. Finally, I am a US Army veteran and understand the challenges and needs of veterans. I operate under a practical approach that seeks to build on a person's strengths to achieve realistic, measurable goals. I utilize primarily cognitive behavioral therapy and reality therapy to help my clients achieve their goals and to live life more fully.

Hello! My name is Kim. Have you experienced trauma? Do you feel frustrated and stuck? Do you feel like you end up in the same place, over and over again, and can’t seem to figure out how to stop? Is it hard to love and accept yourself? I help those who struggle with the effects of trauma and who often feel anxious, depressed, and overwhelmed to find peace and healing. We will work together to find the roots of the issues and heal the wounds of the past. We’ll use a strength-based approach to address the whole self – spirit, soul, and body. I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and meditation to develop a set of tools that you can use to build trust in and learn to love and accept yourself. No matter what you are experiencing – anxiety, depression, feeling overwhelmed – I’m here to help. It can be scary to ask for help, and I am proud of you for making this choice. You deserve to have a safe place where you can begin to heal and experience growth. During our time together, I will provide a model of love, compassion, and acceptance so that you can overcome the hurts, habits, and hang-ups that have been holding you back. I look forward to working with you!
