“As a marriage and family therapist, I provide a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where individuals and couples can explore their challenges and work toward meaningful growth. My passion is helping clients repair relationships, build deeper connections, and unlock their full potential. Together, we’ll collaborate on practical solutions tailored to your unique needs, fostering lasting change and a stronger sense of well-being.”

Ideals

I believe every relationship has the potential for growth when both people are willing to approach each other with curiosity instead of criticism. My role is to create a space where you can slow down, better understand yourself and your partner, and learn practical tools to build a stronger, healthier relationship. Whether you're working through conflict, rebuilding trust, or navigating a major life transition, my goal is to help you feel seen, supported, and equipped to create lasting change. 

Helping Hands
Faith Based Values

For clients who find faith or spirituality to be an important part of their lives, Kim is happy to thoughtfully incorporate those beliefs into the counseling process. She believes therapy should reflect each client's personal values and welcomes conversations about spirituality when they support healing and growth. Whether clients prefer a faith-integrated approach or a purely clinical one, Kim strives to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that honors their individual journey.

Faith-Based Values

Personal

Outside of the therapy office, I enjoy spending time with my husband, getting lost in a good book, traveling, crafting, and exploring new coffee shops. At home, my French Bulldog, Tarzan, keeps life fun with his big personality.

​

As a Lead Therapist at Maverick Marriage Therapy, I also enjoy supporting fellow clinicians and am currently training to become an approved clinical supervisor. I'm passionate about lifelong learning and continually growing so I can provide the best care possible for my clients.

​

I believe healthy relationships aren't about perfection—they're about staying curious, repairing when things go wrong, and choosing each other again and again. My goal is to help every client feel seen, understood, and equipped with practical tools to build the relationships they want.
