Women's Issues Therapists in Winston Salem, NC
Not feeling heard, not knowing the next step or not being where you thought you'd be at this part of your life is hard. Like really hard. We're constantly told what we "should" have achieved. My clients bring to sessions struggles with setting boundaries, feeling heard by those in their lives, wrapping their mind around a major life change like the end of a relationship/figuring out what life looks like post-retirement or just highly anxious. They need a space where they can be truly heard, process what's holding them back and connect with what will make them feel fulfilled and connected to the version of themselves they want to be.

Kimberly’s ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. You might be navigating anxiety, depression, family stress, or a major life transition and finding that you’re carrying far more than you let on. On the outside, you may be holding things together, but internally you’re longing for relief, clarity, and a space where you don’t have to explain or justify how hard things feel. You want to feel heard, grounded, and more in control of your emotional world—not just surviving, but genuinely moving forward.

Many issues bring people to psychotherapy. Perhaps something feels off in your life—dissatisfactory; painful. Maybe there has been a loss, or a reckoning. You might be rebuilding, or dreaming of possibilities, or barely keeping your head above water. Perhaps, like many, you are contending with grief. My work is with adults from all backgrounds. Often, the individuals I support are navigating several areas of focus, including but not limited to: chronic pain and illness, dissociation and dissociative identities, complex trauma, histories of abuse, relationship challenges, searches for meaning, and family of origin concerns.

In over a decade as a therapist, I have helped clients of all backgrounds cope with trauma and improve their lives. My specialties include depression, anxiety, narcissistic abuse, neurodivergence, parenting concerns, and such women's health issues as infertility, maternal depression, and PCOS. My practice also concentrates on stress management, relationships, and navigating issues related to one's family of origin. Cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness lie at the heart of my therapeutic approach. I value being present in the moment with my clients and their emotions, whatever they may be.

I believe that every person has the ability to grow, heal and change. As a counselor, I provide a space of nonjudgmental acceptance and authenticity which invites clients to show up exactly as they are and to be valued and supported in all aspects of their identity. I aim to partner with and empower my clients, utilizing the strengths and skills they already possess, to work toward their goals for healing and growth. My counseling orientation is grounded in a family systems approach, though I also draw significantly from attachment theory and person-centered counseling.

My clients are people in the middle of a battle — with substances, with behaviors that have taken hold, with the exhaustion of loving someone whose addiction is reshaping their world. Some come in for themselves. Others come in because someone they love is struggling and they don't know how to help, how to cope, or how to stop being consumed by it. What they all share is a moment of honesty — an acknowledgment that something has to change. I walk beside them through that. Not ahead, not behind — beside. Because I believe we are all, in our own way, walking one another home. And that journey begins the moment someone decides they are

You didn’t get a “normal” childhood. Instead of fun, your early years were filled with fear and instability. You learned from a young age that the world was a scary place, one you needed to distance yourself from. Now, as an adult, you feel like you’re constantly holding your breath. Your nervous system is on high alert at all times, leaving you feeling either anxious or numb. You often find yourself trapped in your own head and wonder why you find it so difficult to connect meaningfully with the present and the people around you. Painful memories have kept you feeling stuck for too long, and you’re ready to heal.

You don't have to hold everything together here. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported without judgment—a place where you can show up exactly as you are. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or exhausted from carrying so much for so long while being incredibly hard on themselves along the way. They often struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or feeling like they can never escape their "funk". I believe healing happens in the context of safe relationships, so I strive to bring compassion and genuine care to our work together.

I currently work with adults who are seeking to better understand themselves and their interactions with the world around them. Through counseling, I often support individuals who are neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, educators, college students/young adults, and individuals who are going through big life changes (changing careers, moving to a new town, changes in significant relationships). Through counseling I support individuals as they gain a stronger sense of themselves and a deeper understanding of the control that they have over their own life.
