Life is an incredible journey, yet full of unexpected twists and turns. We all get stuck at times. That’s where I come in. With a background in strength-based, cognitive-behavioral therapy and years of life coaching and career counseling, I’ve helped many clients not only manage confusing or hard seasons of life, but thrive. Change can (and does) often bring stress, anxiety, loss of purpose and a flurry of other problems. I truly believe that these can be the perfect opportunities for growth and something new and beautiful.
I am licensed in Washington state with 10 years of professional work experience. Through my own side business, I have had experience working as an executive and professional coach. I’ve also worked for 8+ years at a local college with students, young adults, mid-age and retirees, as they contemplated career change, life purpose and other stressful/confusing life events. I approach counseling by truly listening, showing compassion and encouragement while exploring your thoughts/actions that are keeping you stuck. I believe you are the expert at your life. My goal is to explore the barriers and help you make movement to where you need to be.
Personally, I am a wife, sister, daughter, friend and homeschool mom of 3. I am a Christian and enjoy discussing your concerns from a Christian perspective.
I would love to partner with you as you explore your life, struggle areas and barriers and I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
Additional areas of focus: Relationship issues, Grief, Life purpose
Clinical approaches: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kimberly Hanson. 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.
Kimberly is wonderful! I couldn't ask for a better therapist. She listens so well and always comments on multiple things I've said in addition to giving advice, guiding the conversation, or asking follow up questions. She speaks in a very positive way, which has been influencing my own self-talk to be more positive. She gives you the time and opportunity to guide the conversation however you want, but is great at following up on previous topics or asking new questions if you're not sure where to start. I am so happy to be connected with her - she makes therapy worth the hard work!
