Therapist

Virtual • California


Thanks for stopping by my page! I'm Kimberly, located in Southern California and have enjoyed a 20-year career in behavioral health. I specialize in working with women of all ages navigating life’s many transitions—from new motherhood and postpartum challenges to finding balance between career and family, and through the emotional and physical changes that come with pre- and post-menopause. I understand firsthand how these seasons can bring both joy and overwhelm.

Whether you’re returning to work after having a baby, learning how to care for yourself while caring for everyone else, or adjusting to the shifts that come with your body and hormones changing, you don’t have to face it alone. My goal is to help you find steadiness, confidence, and peace as you navigate it all. I’m passionate about supporting women through anxiety, depression, and the ups and downs of motherhood and womanhood. Therapy is a space to rediscover yourself — not as who you “should” be, but as who you are becoming.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes that therapy works best when you feel truly heard — not judged. I bring warmth, honesty, and a no-nonsense approach to our work together. My goal is for every client to leave each session feeling a little more understood and a little more equipped than when they walked in. I work with most major insurance plans, so getting quality care shouldn't have to break the bank.
