Getting to know Kimberley Kershaw

Hi there, I'm Kimberley! My name is Kimberley Kershaw, but I prefer to go by Kim. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I like to approach therapy from your perspective, offering recommendations along the way. My approach My approach to therapy is to see where you are at and how you would like to approach your treatment. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and the humanistic style when addressing your concerns. My focus I have worked with people of all ages, but most of my experience is with individuals aged 18 to elderly. I have worked with a variety of conditions, with my experience primarily focused on those with mental health disorders. My communication style I try to approach therapy with as much humbleness and comfort as possible. It can be difficult to be vulnerable and open with a brand-new person. I want you to feel like you can discuss anything you would like in sessions. My journey to mental healthcare I chose to be a therapist because I wanted to help people. I had actually looked into nursing but was unable to get past my fear of blood. I was introduced to psychology as an undergrad and then to clinical therapy work while trying to get into graduate school. Being able to assist others has always been my passion. My goals for you I take a collaborative approach to goal setting. I will work with you to determine how we know you are doing and feeling better. My first session with you I like to get to know you. The first session will be about why you are seeking treatment and what you feel you need.
