About Me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 6 years experience working as a counselor and life coach. I have worked with clients helping them to learn how to cope with depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, life changes, and parenting problems. In addition, I have homeschooled over 21 years and am familiar with the challenges facing homeschool families.
My counseling style is relaxed and compassionate, and I believe that communication and collaboration is important in the counseling relationship. I work hard to develop rapport to create a safe place for clients to be open and honest about their thoughts and feelings. My approach is based on my understanding of cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and solution-based therapy. As your counselor, I will work with you to develop goals that will help you to learn how to work through challenges you may face to have the life you desire.
By seeking counseling, I believe you have strength and courage, which are necessary to create the changes you are looking for. If you are ready to take the steps to transform your life, I am here to work with you, encourage you, and empower you.
I am looking forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kimberly Nave. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Kimberly is great and offers good articles on stress relief and diagnosing any issues you might not have known you had.
Kimberly is a great listener and really wants to help you with whatever it is that you are going through wether that be good or bad! Awesome person to talk to and get help with!
My therapist is amazing! She is very reliable and honest.
She’s amazing!
I’ve only head the pleasure of having Kimberly nave as my therapist for three weeks but we’ve gone over a lot of deep issues I’ve had and she’s trained me so well on how to deal with my emotions and it’s truly a blessing to have her help.
Kimberly is a very good listerner & applies comments & suggestions when available. She offers support & exercise activities to apply til the next session.
Kim is chill. No pressure.
Kimberly is great. She could relate to my situation. She is very professional. She gave me some life examples from her own experience but didn't make it all about her.
Kim is a wonderful help. She listens and i feel valued when we talk. I feel safe to express my thoughts and struggles with her and she is a great encouragement and offers great help and advice. Grateful for her!
You’re amazing!!
Kimberly is absolutely wonderful. She is able to make me feel validated in my feelings while helping me come up with ways to deal with my struggles.
Kimberly has been a great help and encouragement. I’ve felt listened to and she is quick to respond. She’s always on time and communicates well. I’ve been very pleased with her services! She’s given me good ideas and tips to get to a better understanding in my situation.
Kimberly is amazing. She helped me navigate some tough issues I was dealing with. I felt heard and I felt that my emotions and responses were valid. She was calm, she used her own life experiences to help me through these challenges. I am incredibly thankful for our short time together.
She's very helpful.
Kimberly is very consistent and doesn’t take sides she always checks me and get me together as well
It can take a long time to get help, to acknowledge to yourself that you need it and then to actually show up. Kim allayed any fears and preconceptions and has gently, compassionately and empathetically helped me work through inner struggles whilst providing enough food for thought at the right times. Therapy is hard, very hard, so your counsellor is crucial. Kim has made seemingly untraverseable bridges crossable for me and shown me lifetime tools that give me more strength than I've had in years.
Kimberly is very sweet and she always make sure to check up on you through the text messages. Which I found very nice. However I find talking to her goes nowhere so she gives me no help or advice. I feel like talking to a stranger on the street would be just as adequate. I often find a talk and when I'm done she has no response has no questions no lessons and I just keep talking and she goes on haha and hun and I learned nothing and don't grow it all I feel like I've wasted a s*** ton of money just talking to a person that did absolutely no actual work that would have taken studying or a college degree to do
I felt so much better after a recent call with Kim. While talking with her on the phone she was able to help me come to some realizations about issues in my relationship with my husband and my son and even some things I needed to understand about myself. She shared some of her personal experience, which I found helpful and relatable. She’s very communicative and available and easy to talk to.
I hug myself every time we talk the counseling is so good
Perfect balance of friendly and professional. Understanding her background makes me feel even more confident about her abilities as a therapist (not that they were ever a question). I felt instantly comfortable with her.
Kimberly is such a kind and supportive councillor, she makes you feel really comfortable and she really listens and supports you and find out what your big concerns are and gives you helpful strategies to help you work through them.
Kim, talks to me like a human being, doesn’t criticise or makes any judgment, helps me through my troubles of life, would definitely recommend her
Very kind and caring, but also share her personal struggles/insights which makes me listen more/makes her more accessible emotionally
Kimberly helped me a lot with my relationship with my parents and my partner. I felt heard and like I could really express myself. I had to quit Betterhelp not because of her, but because I decided to see someone physically in my country. I recommend her !
Having Kimberly as my counselor has been a life changing experience. I had never used professional therapy services prior to joining BetterHelp but I'm very thankful for Kimberly being my first therapist. The lessons and skills I've obtained during the time I've spent on BetterHelp will carry me through my lifetime. The experience has truly been priceless.
Kimberly has really helped me in a time where I felt the most alone and stagnant. She has had some shared experiences which has helped so much with our sessions. She's easy to talk to and there is no judgment. I couldn't recommend her more highly
Kim does a great job of listening to me and providing wise counsel. I look forward to my sessions with her and appreciate her expertise.
Personable, real, and very easy to talk to. My time with Kim felt productive and genuine. She truly listens and cares, and it shows. I would recommend her to anyone!
