Kim firmly believe that her clients are the experts in their own lives and that she is just here to help you uncover deeper understandings and shift patterns that you have been stuck in and desire to change. She uses a person-centered, neurodivergent-affirming approach in her work with clients and she works from an intersectional lens to help them navigate both systemic, interpersonal and psychological challenges.
Kimberly Gillette received both her bachelor's and master's degrees in Social Work from Smith College, where she was trained using psychodynamic theory. She has been working with teens for almost 20 years; first in case management, and then for therapy.
I was inspired to become a therapist by the helpers in my own life that facilitated my recovery from PTSD after a sudden loss in college. I originally developed my practice working with queer and transgender youth, adults and their families after struggling to find care for my transgender family member.
