Client-centered is always Kim's approach during a session. This allows a client to open up at their own pace. She takes time to build rapport with her clients, which creates a space for clients to process complex feelings and emotions. A few areas of specialization for Kim are substance abuse, anxiety, and family conflict.

Healing takes courage, and I believe that we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it. This is a stance I take when working with clients who have trauma, addiction, gambling, or other mental health struggles. I work with teens and adults, who are seeking a supportive and understanding environment where they can be authentic and vulnerable. Their goals include overcoming past traumas, breaking free from addictive behaviors, managing codependent tendencies, and addressing unresolved issues. My hope and goal is to help clients thrive and find peace in their lives.

Carol Stream, IL 60188
As a trauma & anxiety therapist I've helped adults for the past 30 years to: decrease anxiety and depression, heal from trauma and painful pasts, move through grief and mourning, create a full life despite chronic illness and/or chronic pain, improve relationships, change unhelpful behaviors, increase coping skills, and begin recovery from problem gambling.
Too often life brings us the unwanted, the unwelcomed, and the unexpected. These things are often deeply painful, cause us to struggle, increase our stress and overwhelm, and cause us to feel alone. If this is what you are experiencing, you don't have to be alone in it, - therapy can help. You deserve to be heard, cared for, and supported. Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, being triggered by past trauma, or battling with chronic pain or illness, we can work together to untangle the things that hold you back, so you can create the life you want and deserve. You will be able to heal, grow, and thrive.

With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I am skilled in helping adults and adolescents work through a wide range of challenges ranging from the everyday nuances such as maintaining healthy boundaries, work-life balance to more complex concerns such as trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, gambling addiction and substance misuse.
Understanding that the journey toward healing isn’t always glamorous and sometimes scary, I aim to provide clients with an emotionally safe environment to overcome the difficulties that plague them. I understand that choosing to start therapy isn't always an easy decision due to life’s demands and sociocultural stigma around seeking mental health care. I strive to create therapeutic relationships that are nonjudgmental, authentic, transparent, warm and collaborative. I provides a collaborative and objective platform to explore concerns, unlearn & replace thoughts or behaviors that no longer serve my clients.

The weight is almost unbearable. The feelings of grief are draining. You try to remember all of the good times of the past, but the emotional sorrow is like a veil over your head. You can’t seem to focus, and part of you doesn’t want to. Reality is too raw to face right now. What you lost haunts you everywhere and every day. Logically, you know you need to move on with life, but it's too difficult no matter how hard you try. You pray. Beg God to take this pain away. People tip-toe around you, and you hate that your relationships have changed. You find comfort in this grief, but you desperately want it to end. When will it end?

Many of the people that come to see me have in someway either lost their way in life and are tired of settling for the crumbs.

My goal is to help you find a healthy way of dealing with whatever the issues, in effective ways, that are keeping you from reaching your highest potential and to heal the obvious and not so obvious wounds that might be preventing that from happening.

Emotions are normal! The difference between feeling anxious or depressed lies in our interpretation of these emotions. I work with children, adolescents and adults for individual or couples counseling. I enjoy working with young people by helping them to understand emotions and what they mean. There are several therapeutic modalities I use including art therapy as a way to connect feelings to behaviors and sports metaphors for visualizing change. Through this process my clients increase self-control and self-esteem. My goal is to reveal the strengths individuals posses even if the current life situation may feel overwhelming.

How do gambling rehabilitation programs work?
There are both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation programs. However, for some individuals, an outpatient facility may not offer enough hands-on care, and for other individuals, an inpatient facility may be too much. Both types of care have knowledgeable health professionals including physicians (in the case of residential programs), psychologists, counselors, psychotherapists, and recovered mentors.
How do gambling 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Abstinence and maintenance are key for 12-step gambling disorder programs. Individuals in a 12-step group rely on each other for support and accountability. In addition, there is often a spiritual element to these programs, whereby belief in a higher power can help the individual overcome their tendencies. If an individual genuinely wants to cease gambling, attending a 12-step program along with regular psychotherapy can be highly effective.
How long does therapy take for gambling disorder?
Recovering from gambling disorder takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but a person can see change if they stick with therapy and if they have the will and desire to stop. Treatment for gambling disorder requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers, as well as the development of coping skills. Making lifestyle changes is also important, such as staying away from lotteries, online gambling, and casinos.
Is relapse a problem for those with a gambling disorder?
Gambling disorder is often chronic and can be life-long; therefore relapse may present a problem for some individuals. But effective treatment can bring a person’s life under control. To remain healthy and on track, the individual may need to regularly check in with their support group or psychotherapist. Frequently refreshing their tools of recovery can be helpful.
