Kimberlyn Sandoval, LCSW
About me
As a licensed therapist in California, I bring over 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and grief with compassionate, culturally responsive care.
I specialize in addressing deeply personal struggles such as social anxiety, isolation, attachment issues, and challenges with self-love and communication. My approach is deeply affirming, particularly for LGBTQ+ individuals and communities of color, creating a safe space where clients can explore their experiences and healing journeys.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I support clients in developing stronger self-understanding, building resilience, and reconnecting with their sense of purpose. My work is grounded in respect for each individual's unique identity and lived experience, offering supportive guidance through life's most challenging transitions and emotional terrains.
