Getting to know Kim Giddens

Starting with the initial consultation, I help my clients clarify their treatment goals, identify potential obstacles, and collaboratively create a plan for success. My style is empathic, candid, and direct. I listen intently, ask questions, explore, provide real, authentic feedback, and use humor—I love to laugh. Primarily, my role is to help clients understand the meaning and impact of their experiences and recognize patterns—even when they may not want to see them. Understanding past experiences, along with identifying core beliefs and values, leads to clarity and contentment. I help clients explore all of this. I practice individual, couples, family, DBT therapy, and EMDR trauma-based therapy. My practice is LGBTQ affirmative, informed, and supportive. Along with regular office hours, I offer early morning, evening, and weekend sessions. I hold a Master’s in Psychology from Antioch University, Los Angeles. Thank you, Salter!
