Kim is wonderful. She is warm and creates a really safe space to talk. She manages to get to the heart of issues especially when they're not clear to me. Her advice has been so helpful. I feel very lucky to have been partnered with Kim.

Hey there, I'm Kim (she/her), a dedicated and empathetic Humanistic Counsellor with a heartfelt passion for assisting individuals on their journey towards healing and self-discovery.
Life can throw some tough stuff at us, right? I get it and I'm here to provide a safe, judgment-free space for you to figure it all out. Having seen the ups and downs alongside cancer patients and their families at MacMillan and through my work at a suicide bereavement group, I've got a unique perspective on the emotional rollercoaster life can be.
Some of the things I have worked with:
- Coping with cancer diagnosis and treatment
- Managing emotional distress and anxiety
- Grief, loss, and bereavement
- Self-esteem and self-acceptance
- Exploring life transitions and identity
What is a session with me like?
The relationship between client and counsellor is one of my main priorities and it is so important you choose the right counsellor for you. So, if you are wondering what a session with me is like, I'm all about Humanistic Therapy, which means you're the star of the show. I'm here to listen, understand, and offer a hand to hold while you unpack those thoughts and feelings. You are the expert in your own life and hold the answers within, it’s my job to support and empower you to find them. I pride myself on creating a safe space where you can be your authentic self, free from judgement and share at your own pace. I can also work in an integrative way, using techniques from other types of therapy if needed meaning you will have a unique experience tailored to you and your needs.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

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.

Kim is an excellent therapist. She has so much knowledge and expertise across many areas. She is also a great listener, very kind, and I felt at ease with her straight away. I would highly recommend her.
I feel very listened too and supported. Do not feel pressured in any way whatsoever to do anything I'm not ready for.
