When asked what she’s awesome at, Kim replied, “Being completely present with my clients opens up a space for healing. I listen with all of my senses, not just my ears. I am creative and unorthodox at the same time, allowing me to meet my clients where they are on their unique and very personal journey toward healing. I am a natural empathic nurturer that views accountability as a critical component of caring.”
