I started working with Kimberly after having worked with several other ``trauma`` therapists over the years. They may have meant well, but without the specialized training, I was stalled and stuck and never made any progress. Once I started working with Kimberly, the shifts and changes were steady and consistent. My life now is 100% different than it was before. I used to think of my life ``before the event and after the event`` but now I think of how different it is from ``before I met Kimberly, to after I healed with her.`` So grateful to have found her and to have my life back.
Like many others, I've tried for years to get real help for my trauma, but it just wasn't available. That was until I met Kimberly. As a man coming from a toxic environment, showing any vulnerability has never been easy, but she made it possible. She never ceased to amaze me with the many ways she helped me through my myriad of issues, until the day I felt ready to be the man I wanted to be, the man I was now capable of being, consistently. Please don't settle for well meaning therapists that don't have the training - its not fair to either of you and takes so much longer than it ever has to. You deserve the best help and that is Kimberly. She gets results for you that are sustainable. Don't waste time, this is your life.
I was diagnosed with BPD & Complex PTSD and a few other things I cannot remember how to spell and was basically told I should just take my medicine and consider myself lucky to have survived. At 33 I didn't know I had options, at 43 I found Kimberly and my life has changed dramatically. When I see how my life is now, I really wish I would have found this help 10 years ago, my life would have been so different. Yet, I am so grateful to be here today, when others around me have chosen to leave this planet from their pain. Better late than never, or at all. Yes, it's hard, yes it's scary at times but it is never worse that what happened to create the conditions. You can move past where you are now, just commit to doing it and show up, the results will come.
As CEO of my own company for over 30 years, I am not used to not being in control, or not having all of the answers. Needless to say this didn't help with my marriage. A friend of mine and his wife worked with Kimberly and it saved their marriage, so I had nothing to lose but everything to gain. To my great surprise, there are reasons for why I am the way I am and I don't have to change everything to be happy or to make my wife happy. Sometimes understanding what is happening and making small consistent changes is enough. We've only been working with Kimberly for 3 months, but the changes in our relationship have been astounding. Not saying its all easy but its worth it. If you have a relationship worth saving, fight for it with Kimberly's help. She has a way of explaining things that just make sense, and when things make sense, answers and change are possible. We can't wait to see where we are in another 3 months.

My wife and I have been working with Kimberly for the last 9 months. My wife has Aspergers and I have had a lifetime of traumatic experiences. We didn't realize what impact of both of our situations, would have on each other as individuals and on our relationship. With Kimberly's help, we've learned how to communicate, how to figure out what our triggers are together and for each other, and work together to resolve them. We've learned to rebuild trust and safety with and for each other and we've been able to model this for our 3 daughters. Our lives as a couple and as a family have changed and we are forever grateful. Doing this work is life changing and is something you will never regret.

As a successful entrepreneur, I was great at building businesses, but not at building myself. I soon found myself out of balance, overweight, single and frustrated. I'm intelligent but just couldn't figure it out. Then I heard about Kimberly and everything changed. She helped me get myself and my personal life on track, heading in the direction I wanted. I have lost 45 pounds and am in the best shape of my life. I'm now representing myself and my brand, personally & professionally - just the way I want to. I feel balanced, am back in alignment with my purpose. I really had no idea how my past was affecting me and preventing me from being the success I wanted to be. Those things are now in the past as I move forward confidently and successfully. It wasn't easy, but it was worth the time and investment. If you're ready, call Kimberly, period.
The trauma in my home life was profound and I never thought I would live, much less have a chance to recover. Not only have I survived, I am now thriving in a career of my choice, confident in myself and my life. My company just went public and I have seven figures in the bank. Dealing with your trauma & history will change your life. Period. Do it.

As a successful businessman I am used to leading everything I can, controlling everything I can - which has made me who I am. That was great, except it's not helpful to heal from Complex PTSD, because there are some things you cannot control. What I could do however, was find the best of the best, to help me and I did. I did all of my sessions from the privacy of my office or hotel room when I was travelling- I even did some from my car when I needed to and never missed a session. Kimberly kept me on task and on target and together we prepared for everything that was going to happen so it didn't impact my business or my family in a negative way. In fact the opposite happened - I'm happier and more productive than I've ever been before, my family is happy and healthy and my business profits are through the roof, 2018 was my best year ever. I can attribute that to the changes in me as a man and as a leader, father, husband and none of that would have happened without Kimberly. You will never know how much your past may be impacting your health, happiness & profits until you look.
I was one of those people who was taught to just get on with life, not dwell on the things you can't change, no sense in taking etc., Then my son committed suicide and my world fell apart. My wife and I have since divorced. So when I heard about Kimberly, I had nothing left to lose. I had no idea what to do or say and that was ok. She just let me talk things through. She helped me to feel the pain and move through it. After 6 months I finally felt like I could breathe again, like it was ok to still be living while my son was dead. In hindsight, I wish my son could have seen Kimberly and maybe his outcome would have been different. I know without a doubt, my plans to join him have changed. I can't change what my son did and I can't change how my ex-wife is coping, but I can take care of myself and live my life in a way that will honour myself and my son, and that is something worth living for.

My wife worked with Kimberly and after seeing the changes in her, thought it might be time to do my own work. I've lived with survivors guilt for most of my life after a childhood accident took the life of my sister. I have lived half of a life because of what I believed about myself and what life I did live, was focused on punishing myself for not saving her. I know I am not done yet, but my life today is so different than it was before. I am learning to love myself. I am finally able to let my wife in. I have shared with my children and am working to heal this with my parents, who luckily are still alive. I couldn't have done this without Kimberly.
I was referred to Kimberly through a friend who had great weight loss results. But truly, the weight loss I've experienced is only one small part of my success. I didn't realize how much I felt like a fraud in my business life because of how I used to look. I didn't realize how much I kept people at a distance because I was afraid to be seen. The weight was the symptom of the problem and also the way I resolved the problem - so it was tricky to deal with. Kimberly was so patient with me and walked me through each step. As I started losing the weight, other triggers and issues came up and she was there with me every part of the way, supporting with me. She prepared me for everything that was coming and we had a plan to make it through, and we did. I've now lost 73 pounds and regained my life - my entire life - including the parts I didn't even know were missing because of the weight. I'm no longer a fraud in my own eyes, I'm no longer a failure in my own eyes. I'm finally me - and I love me for perhaps the very first time. I let my past trauma control me for 20+ years through my weight, but no more. Kimberly can help you, jus like she helped me. She's done it herself, so she knows what she's talking about.

My wife and I started seeing Kimberly a year ago via Zoom. I had no illusions or expectations and thought for sure divorce was in our future, but went to sessions anyways. To be honest, my wife and I had a few sessions, separately - from different rooms, or different cities, that is how little we could stand each other at times. Then by some miracle, the answers started coming, information started making sense, our lives started making sense, the problems in our relationship started making sense. We stopped being seen as bad people to each other and started being seen as people who had wounds that made them behave in ways that unfortunately triggered each other. From this place, the attack & blame game stopped and we could love & trust each other again. It didn't happen over night, but it happened and thats all that mattered. If anybody in your relationship has experienced trauma - trust me, its showing up and is playing a bigger role than you thought. Kimberly can help you figure it all out and help you to create the relationship you both want.
