More about Kimberly
- 25 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker ( LCSW ) with over 20 years of experience as a therapist working with diverse populations and age ranges. I received a Master of Social Work Degree from Temple University with a concentration in Direct Service. My Bachelor's Degree in Psychology was obtained at La Salle University. I also have a certification in advanced drug and alcohol counseling. I have worked with clients experiencing a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, psychosis, substance use disorders and vocational, educational, social and familial stressors.
My therapy style is warm, engaging and non-judgmental in order to highlight the unique strengths of each individual. I am dedicated to meeting people where they are and creating a therapeutic alliance based upon trust and mutual respect. My integrative approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy ( CBT ), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy ( DBT ), Ecological Systems Theory, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Trauma Informed Care.
I look forward to joining with you and supporting you each step of the way along the path you choose at your own pace and within your own context. In my spare time I enjoy literature, travel, culture and quality time with my son. Fun fact! I graduated from the Beasley School of Law at Temple University in 2009.
It would be my pleasure to work with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

So far I’m really liking working with Kim!!

Therapy with Kim has been quite helpful. In a short period of time I have refined my goals and have understood my relationship with my grief. I have gained confidence moving forward. I appreciate the support, validation and compassion. Thank you Kim.
I am 69y/o and I've been in and out of therapy throughout different phases of my life. I was given a therapist by Better Help to help me deal with anxiety. With her help I have worked through my journey of divorce, living alone, retirement and just aging in general. As the onion peeled back we delved into some family-of-origin issues which for me was the source of my anxiety. Kim has been the best therapist I've ever had, hands down. She keeps me on track and guides me through my though processes as if she's known me her entire life. If you are hesitant about starting with therapy online, don't be. Take the step. You're worth it.
Just from our first 2 sessions I feel I can express to her things she will be helping me achieve she pin points things I know I need help with but try to avoid. She’s great so far
Kimberly has been great. We have only had 2 sessions so far but I’m really enjoying our sessions and the treatment plans she is helping me with. The worksheets help me as well. Highly recommend.
Kim has become a trusted advisor! Helps so much to have her to talk to.
Kim is one of the finest therapists I’ve ever had. She totally knows me….I allow myself and feel free enough to expose everything, no judgement, supported. She builds on my growth and seems to know exactly where I am at. I saw an add on TV and took a chance….so glad I did!
Kimberly is an amazing therapist and an even better person. I have went through some tough things mentally in my life and she has helped me through these!
Kim is incredibly helpful and smart. I appreciate her approach, especially the way she listens but also gives excellent feedback.
Kim is the best. I always feel better after talking to her, whether I’ve had a good or bad week leading up to our talks. I really appreciate it.
Kim is awesome. I love that she is very forth -coming with things that don't make sense and make me feel like she's paying attention. She reaches out to me in-between sessions for updates and she's been awesome with being flexible with my schedule.
Only had one appointment so far but the issues we covered, she was very knowledgeable and helpful and I very much look forward to working with her more in the future appointments.
Kim is by far the best therapist I’ve ever had. In only 2 sessions she has been able to help me with a plan and excersizes to work on to address my issues.
Kim is great, she made me feel completely comfortable from day 1. She is a great listener and is flexible and understanding!
Kim has helped me greatly over the last few months. She genuinely takes the time to listen and hear what you’re saying, and offers great perspectives on finding the positives in situations. I was in a pretty bad place mentally when I started with her, but now I feel like I walk around much lighter. I have really appreciated working with her, and the work its helped me do on myself.
kind and helpful
Kim has been wonderful. She doesn’t force you into one way of thinking, but rather helps lead you to conclusions on your own. She’s very responsive. I really appreciate working with her, and think I’m making some gains mentally already.
I have spoken with Kimberly once and I look forward to do so again. She is easy to speak too and I feel as though I can trust her. She is goal oriented and I like that.
Great people to help people
Kim is amazing. She has in depth knowledge of many useful tools and at the same time she is able to think outside of the box and tailor the therapy to my individual need. She is practical and effective. She always surprises me with a new angle on how I am viewing my situations. Our sessions are engaging and I am often thoughtful throughout the week about our discussions.
She has helped my reframe my way of thinking and the way I talk to myself
