I really like Kim. I feel like she really knows who I am doesn’t tell me things that are not realistic.
She is very caring.
She is not judgy.
I feel like I can tell her anything and be 100% honest with her which helps her help me.
And she’s smart because she remembers so many things about me about and I don’t feel that she has to look at her notes she has to look at her notes to remember who I am.

I've worked with Kim since 2022 and I've grown exponentially because of her guidance. I'm extremely grateful that we were initially matched up by Better Help. She's always been supportive yet challenging; helpful but not placating. Now that we've tapered off our sessions, she still checks in with me and I really appreciate that. I'd recommend her highly!

Kim’s personal experience has made her a unique therapist for me. She understands on many different levels the kind of stress I have endured in my recent challenges in life. She has been through the same ones. I think empathy is obviously one of her strong points, but the fact she can relate in so many ways makes it so much easier to trust her experience, judgment and advice. I am very happy with the service and with my experience with Kim.

Kim just “gets it”
She meets me exactly where I am and offers multiple suggestions for how things to try that will help me, but doesn’t make me feel judged or gives me “homework” I can’t believe I waited so long ti do this!

Kim was a wonderful therapist for me to bounce thoughts off of! My main concern when first beginning therapy was really centered around learning to trust my decision making skills! I can honestly say that Kim has great insight and really helped me on my journey to learning to trust myself. She's super attentive, is always on time for sessions, and really works to make clients feel comfortable. I've been able to ground myself in deep, rational thought just after 4 sessions. If I ever make a journey back over to BetterHelp, I hope I am able to match with Kim once again! Thank you for all your help, Kim!
