I have been struggling with anxiety, taking control of my own life and owning who I am. Since meeting with Irma I have noticed a difference in myself for the better and know that I will continue to grow with her help. ”

What should a new client know about working with you?

I work with you to first connect by identifying your issues and then together we develop goals to obtain in treatment. Along with you, we work to assess what style interventions you are comfortable with.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

A typical session might look like me first allowing you time to report what is going on in your life identifying problematic issues. I work to assess my observation, allowing me to mold the session to what direction you seem to be wanting to go in by judging those responses. I also like to summarize the main theme of the session and identify any any additional goals for closure. I sometimes, depending on the session, ask the client to give some thought to how the ct felt after the session.

I have been seeing Irma for about 3 months now and always look forward to our sessions. She is a great listener and has given me great guidance in how to better myself and live a happier life. I have been struggling with anxiety, taking control of my own life and owning who I am. Since meeting with Irma I have noticed a difference in myself for the better and know that I will continue to grow with her help.
I am grateful having worked with Irma and am appreciative that she I someone I can trust and confide in. She cares deeply and commends the hard-work her patients put in to realizing their results. My visit with Irma is always challenging, in that she helps me to confront within myself things that I have long known but chosen to ignore. In this sense, I feel assured that she is helping me to self-identify issues, become reflective in my actions, understand what underlying causes are for my behaviors and allowing me to diagnose with "tools" I can use to see gradual changes. She knows when to challenge me on what I say, but also listen and "hear" me. I never feel like a "number". If you are serious about considering or seeking someone to help, I urge you contact Irma.
I had so much to share that an hour seemed not enough. Irma listened patiently and asked clarifying questions along the way. I didn’t think there’d be any time for much aside from me sharing, yet she gave me the confirmation I needed and helped me get closer to healing during our first time together. I’m really glad I found her and cannot wait for our next session.

Irma is the best therapist I've ever had. She allows me to grow and learn from my mistakes without judging me. She's given me the guidance I've lacked and allowed me to take what I need from her. She is a therapist that will treat you like family and prioritize you. She cares so much about her patients and ensures they are getting what they need from treatment. I feel like I will he using the skills she has taught me for the rest of my life. Irma is a genuine, kind, passionate, intelligent, witty therapist that everyone should experience! I am forever grateful I got to work with Irma and am glad other people get to experience her work!

I have been seeing Irma for a few years . She is very direct w me , which is so different from prior therapists . She doesn’t ‘yes’ me all the time which I appreciate and value highly ( tough love ) . I look forward to speaking w her each time .
Ms. Kingsley was very helpful and attentive to our issues and concerns. Her depth of experience and understanding was apparent from the beginning, and each session was extremely helpful and productive. She provided thoughtful insights, and we were able to achieve a great deal at each session.
