Kimberly is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Iowa.

She has a holistic view of therapy, considering how different areas affect an individual.

Prior to being a counselor, Kimberly served as a missionary on college campuses with Cru (formerly known as Campus Crusade for Christ). Through her years in ministry, Kimberly developed a passion for walking alongside people from every walk of life as they gain an understanding of themselves and their faith, and for others to know they are not alone in this journey of life.

She is actively pursuing an EMDR certification and has begun integrating EMDR methods into her therapeutic approach to support trauma processing and healing.
