About me

Hello and welcome!

My name is Kimberly Depatie, please call me Kim. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Equine Assisted Psychotherapist in beautiful South Florida. I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Central Florida in 1998.

I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, relationship issues, parenting problems, obsessive-compulsive disorder, physical trauma and/or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is welcoming, warm and client-centered. It is my goal to collaborate and empower my clients. Working together, we will look to discover strategies, tools and solutions that work best for you.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, let's get to work!

As you look at my availability on the platform, please know that it is slightly different from the sessions that show as available. My office hours are Monday through Friday 3:00 PM EST through 11:00 PM EDT.

I look forward to working with you!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kimberly Depatie. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

I appreciate that even when we are not in session her clients are her priority.

My therapist is a great listener, she's also a good leader. I didn't know exactly how online therapy would work but she explained exactly how everything works. I appreciated the guidance. I'm excited to go forward and I'm already seeing results after one session.
