Thank you for visiting my profile. I'm a clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience as a child, adult, and family psychotherapist and assessor. I have specialized training from Children's Hospital L.A. and UCLA. I help my clients heal, find their own long-lasting solutions, and build resilience.

Life is challenging. You are living in a state of multiple crises and trying to navigate relentless responsibilities each day. You have endured injustices, trauma, and personal losses. You are trying to stay afloat, but sometimes you feel like you’re drowning. As Latina who's had many of these experiences, I recognize the significant impact they have on your mental health. My focus in therapy is to explore what barriers keeps you from having the quality of life you want. I believe that people do the best they can within the context of their lives. Support is available to guide you through this process.

I have a desire to help those who have lost their way in life. I believe therapy is a collaborative process between the client and the therapist. There is strength and resolve within all of us, however there are times when we need assistance to put us back on the road to resilience. I want to work with you by asking you what you want and what your goals are in treatment.

I believe that one of the most courageous steps we can take when experiencing mental health challenges is seeking the support of a mental health professional. I believe that our lived experiences and lack of experience influence the way we manage and adapt to life stressors and changes. My hope is to support you in exploring ways in which you can reduce mental health distress and improve your overall mental health well-being.

Hello, my name is Kimberly Argil. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My approach to therapy is to create permanent healing within your life and avoid the "band aid" approach that we sometimes get stuck into. My therapy may be challenging but is so worth it in the end. My goal in therapy with all of my clients is to develop and enhance skills and techniques that will improve the overall quality of your life. This would include coping skills, emotional regulation, anger management, etc. Like I tell all of my clients, I'm helping you to build your "toolbox" for life.

My approach to therapy is to empower the clients I work with through their self-discovery journey. I am a firm believer that progress occurs when clients use meaningful skills and strategies outside therapy sessions, and in doing so, they improve their family functioning, social functioning, and emotional well-being, and overall are able to enjoy life more. As a cognitive behavior diplomat, I use cognitive and behavioral strategies to help clients identify the roots of their problems and find solutions that help them in between sessions.
