These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kimberly Smiley. 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.
I was skeptical of starting therapy for several years, despite knowing how much I needed it. When the tragedies of life hit, it broke me. It was only then that I decided it was time to give therapy a try. I went through a few different counselors but I didn’t feel comfortable with them at all. I didn’t have any peace, and I felt uneasy. Then I matched with Kimberly. The reviews about her are all true!! From the very moment I heard her voice, I immediately had peace. She’s the most sweetest, gentle, reassuring, wise, caring and empathetic person. She is even better as a therapist, with all of that knowledge. I left every single session happier, reassured, encouraged, seen, heard, and ready to take on the challenges and goals I set in the session. I was always looking forward to talking with her again. It quickly became my favorite part of the week. As a Christian, I asked her to incorporate the Bible into our sessions. Not only was she able and happy to do so - but she did it with excellence! Everything I was struggling with in life, there were Bible scriptures for. Which furthered my understanding of the practices and tools she shared with me. My therapy journey with Kimberly, not only helped me to heal mentally and emotionally, but it strengthened my walk with The Lord as well. I discovered a whole new better version of myself that I had no clue about and didn’t know was possible. Thank you Kimberly for helping me discover the joys of life again! There is joy after loss. There is peace after years of anxiety and panic attacks. You can heal from trauma. There is hope for a better life. Invest in therapy. Do yourself a favor and choose her as your therapist! She really is THE BEST!!!

Kimberly Smiley is a natural at helping people get through drama. She identifies the effects of trauma and doesn’t make one feel ashamed of what has happened to them. she is ready to help improve one’s life without taking a long time to solve the issue. She asks permission to address one’s needs. And I don’t ever recall a therapist asking me,but telling me what I had to do. She brings light to the problem in a positive way and guides one at the level they feel comfortable completing the work. A caring and thoughtful therapist.
