About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with 10 years of experience working as a therapist for individuals and families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting issues, and adjustment issues. I also helped many individuals whose trauma experiences impact their ability to have healthy relationships with family and friends.

I received my masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Southern Nazarene University. I am a Registered Play Therapist and I have specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Theraplay (attachment therapy for families), and Adoption Competency.

My counseling style is accepting and interactive. I believe that you are the expert of your own life experience, so I don't offer "one size fits all" advice. My feedback will be tailored to your unique situation. My approach is client-centered with a blend of positive psychology, psychodynamic and family systems counseling. I value the contribution neuroscience has made to the field of counseling, and I enjoy helping people understand why their brain works the way it does (and how to change it!). I use EMDR to assist with enhancing coping skills and processing difficult memories. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Kim is an incredible counselor who understands the art of actively listening to her clients whilst also encouraging self reflection on the clients part. Kim's genuine care for her clients and her ability to really sit with them greatly assists in the client effectively working through any issue or diagnosis they are managing. Highly recommend!
