She is incredibly wonderful, she helped me see myself again while still allowing me to find my own answers. Forever grateful for our connection. Great listener, extremely compassionate, and yet will help you see where you might be “missing the mark” if you will. Amazing experience with Kim!

Hello! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the State of Florida, with 12+ years of professional experience helping individuals improve mental health and well-being. I have experience working with those struggling with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, neglect, depression, grief and loss and coping with life changes. My counseling philosophy is to meet you wherever you are in life's journey and working alongside you to build on the strengths that will assist you in learning to cope and overcome challenges, past or present. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental and accepting atmosphere where I am committed to supporting you and your values to reach your potential and move forward. My therapeutic approach is a combination of person-centered, cognitive behavioral, motivational interviewing and solution-focused therapy styles.
Taking the initiative to sign up for therapy takes courage and I am so proud of you for taking that first step! Empowering those who seek a more fulfilling life is a passion of mine. Let's connect and work together on where your healing and growth may begin.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Kimberly has been an amazing therapist for me thus far. I am grateful for her expertise and support through my challenging times and couldn’t have asked for a better therapist.
From the moment I was paired with Kim I knew I was going to be okay! She listens, understands, and gives very applicable and endearing advice. I’ve really come to trust and respect her in more ways than one. I absolutely love our chats every week and look forward to this blocked off time where I get to work on my thoughts and feelings with a dedicated professional.
Kim is most definitely the “Mothers Touch” I have needed in my life! I have felt so calm and comfortable to tell her all my biggest fears and worries. She welcomes everything with an empathetic heart and kind spirit! I’m already working through the hard conversations and conflicts with ease and confidence! I’m so glad I made the decision to find the help I need!
