Bipolar Disorder Therapists in Rockingham, NC

My approach to counseling is to use existentialism to assist the client in reaching their journey with the accountability and acceptance that they are unique and powerful. By using a collaboration of tools, the individual and myself are able to discover a pathway that requires hard work, but freedom in knowing that each step is celebrated. I value my client's journey as it is what has created their character, it is my desire to assist them to live life with purpose using their journey to succeed.

For many of life’s issues, it is helpful to talk with someone within a nonjudgmental, safe environment. To be listened to and heard in a way that facilitates an understanding of what the underlying origin of the problem is in order to bring about healing. Kimberly uses the psychodynamic approach to counseling as a means to assist clients with understanding themselves more deeply. Serving adults, couples and adolescents, she collaborates with the client to address patterns and behaviors that disrupt wellbeing.

There is no better time than now to start your healing journey. I have a passion for helping people and desire to create a comfortable, safe environment for people to come just as they are and process the burdens they carry. I recognize how brave of a step it is to reach out for help and my approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and collaboration. I believe that each person’s story is unique and deserves to be heard and understood. I use many effective treatment modalities, such as EMDR, DBT, and CBT to bring lasting change. I consider it a great honor to be able to walk alongside each and every one of my clients.
