I am really enjoying my sessions with Kimara. She is the perfect mix of thoughtful listener and coach, knowing how to help me see how far I’ve already come. At the same time, she helps me understand the work I need to do and how we’re going to get it done. Highly recommend her, five stars all around!

Kimara is thoughtful, knowledgeable and approachable. She gives practical advice, makes you feel heard and meets you where you are. This is the best therapist experience I have ever had.

I have only had one session so far with Kimara. Yet that one session has gave me a little more peace with my jumbled thoughts that I have had over the past few years.
Definitely looking forward to more sessions and more confidence building.
