Private Sessions

We all need a little help sometimes. As you deal with the destruction of an old way of life, you may need someone to hold your hand as you navigate to a new phase of your life. You may need tools to help you through a difficult situation. Sometimes life gets downright rough, and you need a professional guide—a therapist to talk you down off the ledge, or out of bed.

Whatever level of support you may need, rest assured that if you need help managing your emotions and mental health, I can help.

How Does It Work?

After an initial consultation, we’ll create a map based on where you want to go, identify habits and practices to effectuate change, and then meet weekly to keep you on target. Working at the intersection of mindfulness, mental health and contemplative practice, our sessions will always include “homework” for you to take into your life to learn new behaviors and healthy habits.

Typically I’ll give you practices to do on your own that will help you take a clear look at your mind, to see where you are tripping yourself up.

here’s what past clients have said:

I have experienced something few people in this world may ever experience. I have been able to open myself up and try and not be afraid to allow people to see me for just me. I have learned to find calmness inside, and have learned to look outside the box to get a better understanding of myself. - Alicia, Los Angeles

Your work, a unique offering of healing and empowerment, your presence and wise guidance helped me to return "back home" to myself with a sense of clarity, strength and inspiration. - Mary, London

I want to thank you for being a part of my journey to a deeper inner peace that I started to experience through meditation.  It has taken me many years of life experiences to get to a place that I am content with who I am and having love for myself. You have an energy that surrounds you that creates peace within others. - Barbara, Los Angeles

This work is for those who want to "dig deeper."Kim is a terrific knowledge source. Leaving in a stronger, healthier mental state than coming in. - Nicole, Bangkok

You really helped to make this a safe place, which allowed me to open up to the group, but most importantly to myself. - Linda, Los Angeles

I feel like I tuned in to the universe in a way I never have. It was very powerful and enlightening. Taking a step back and finding meaning in the simplest things was very transformative....I feel Kim played such an integral part of it. I can see better and hear more clearly and feel so much more. It's beautiful. - Nadine, Chicago

With 25+ years experience counseling and coaching people going through life transitions and all the accompanying emotional issues: anxiety, grief, loss, anger, depression, addictions, relationship issues and self-worth issues, you can relax and trust the process of transformation. My specialty is working with anxiety, grief, and life transition issues. I also have extensive experience working with expats and the issues that arise from living in a foreign culture. Because of my own 20+ years living as an expat, I have a special affinity for working with expats or women working overseas.
