Hi, my name is Kim Stevens, welcome to the BetterHelp website and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. As you read about me you will see that I am new to the field but not new to the areas of helping others and mental health. From a young age without having training or certifications, I was helping others and had an interest in a person's well-being. After a career in public accounting, I am now able to return to my first calling, and one I take personal interest and pride in doing. I have helped others and would like to help you. If you would like to reach out and take that first step, please contact me. I work with individuals from college age through senior adults. I have a strong ability to recognize the impact of family issues like alcoholism or other obsessive compulsive behaviors of the individual. This leads to work in depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, chronic illness, relationship issues and career development. For those clients that I refer for psychiatric consultation for possible prescription medication, know that I do so extremely conscientiously. Although it can be an integral component, there are other factors critical to good and balanced mental health. I provide a safe and authentic, compassionate atmosphere to work with clients towards goals. My general weekly schedule is M-F 10am-5pm EST. That is not to say I do not often accommodate session times outside that general routine schedule. And of course, all the time I am accessible via the chat dialogue box and check and return correspondence from clients daily. I am happy to work with clients choosing video, audio only, or text/chatting only; whatever the client prefers.
