When asked what Kimberly believes she is awesome at, Kimberly replied, “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.”

“I am a proud mom of two wonderful grown kids and a NiNi (grandma) of five rambunctious boys who wear me out but give my soul strength and hope as I am blessed to be a part of their developmental journey. I’ve also been embraced by a bonus family in Florida with two additional grand boys to add to my boy tribe! Yep, that makes seven grandsons! Family is and always will be first for me. Making memories by traveling to tropical and diverse locations is my guilty pleasure and the beach is my happy place. In between trips, when I’m not working or with the grand boys, you will find me at concerts, jamming with my husband!”
