Welcome, I'm Kim.

Compassionate Counseling Through Cancer, Illness, Grief, Anxiety or Depression

Asking for help is often the hardest step. I want to acknowledge your courageous choice to face the distress you're feeling. As humans, our first instinct is to shut down and avoid emotional pain. It's uncomfortable and unwelcome. Unfortunately, burying it backfires and can often make it even worse. You are brave for choosing to face it today. And I'm here for you every step of the way.

I'm here to listen, help, and walk alongside you. Counseling is a place to share your heart and feel connected to someone who cares. This is a safe space to address your fears, burdens, and emotional pain...and to find HOPE again. Together, we will navigate through the most difficult of times. You can learn more about me here.

I'm glad you found me, and I hope you'll get in touch today.

My Counseling Approach

Collaboration

You are the expert of your own life; I respect and honor that. Together, we will explore what is most important to you. This includes your spiritual beliefs, personal values, culture/ethnicity, and other important pieces that make you uniquely YOU.

Acceptance

By experiencing unconditional acceptance in therapy, you will learn how to accept yourself. Acceptance can help you develop self-compassion, kindness, and love. Once those qualities are present, you can grow without shame or regret weighing you down.

Authenticity

I bring my whole self into therapy as a genuine fellow human being who, just like you, is doing my best to journey through life. Through our authentic relationship, you can find comfort in knowing that you're not alone and it's OK to be imperfectly YOU.

Healing

Healing occurs when you can safely explore your thoughts & feelings without fear of being judged. The scars you carry are proof of your strength & resilience. I attend to the whole person: mind, body, & spirit. Each part of you deserves to be seen and healed.
