“Kim Lawson is skilled in motivational interviewing (rolling with my resistance) and constantly challenges me to 1) reframe my negative self-talk, 2) take on new - network strengthening - positive habits/behaviors, and 3) document (actual writing utensil to paper journaling) not only thoughts and needs in my personal life, but also in my professional/academic life - which is something that is essential to my healing, self-confidence, and behavioral self-efficacy as a Black millennial woman dealing with multiple mental and physical health conditions while working and learning in the health and healthcare industry.”

Getting to know Dr. Kim Lawson

Hi, I'm Dr. Kim Lawson. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps toward change. I am here to support, empower, and challenge you in that journey. You are the expert of your story and have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming what is keeping you from your best life. I am a licensed psychologist with 20 years of professional experience. I earned my PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Argosy University. My experience includes helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, coping with life changes, trauma, and end-of-life issues. I also have extensive experience working with young adults diagnosed with Autism and/or ADHD.

What should a new client know about working with you?

In our sessions, I will listen to what is troubling you and what you want to be different in your life. Often a safe place to express your struggles, fears, and disappointments can be the first step in the healing journey. Specific strategies to help you on your journey will be provided.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

From the very first session, my therapist made me feel seen and understood. Her solution-oriented approach equipped me with practical tools to navigate life’s challenges. She instilled confidence in me, helping me see light at the end of the tunnel. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking guidance. Thank you for making a difference in my life. ??
Dr. Kim is very helpful and very kind. She’s very concise and straightforward in her session. She has helped me think in ways I had never done before in the best way possible. Very solid therapist. Highly recommended.
