Dr Kimberly Balkcom is brilliant, attentive, and supportive. Whatever you’re dealing with, they’ll help you unpack it and see the machinery and habits at work in a positive and actionable light. I’ve looked a long time for a therapist like her and I’m so grateful to be a tap away from her advice. It’s done a lot for my self esteem and has helped me be less anxious and more mindful.

I was at one of my lowest before meeting Kimberly. I didn’t understand how to get through feelings and how to deal with something bad for the first time. Kimberly helped me through and through with my mental health and as I had more sessions with her I began to understand more about myself and how deal better with my emotions. She was patient, kind and understanding throughout our sessions and I couldn’t ask for a better therapist.
