Getting to know Kimberly Berman

My approach is to cultivate a professional relationship with each client while developing trust at the client's pace. The client and therapist, together, identify goals and devise a plan to facilitate desired changes. The empathy that I have for my clients enables me to create a safe space for them to learn effective tools to achieve emotional growth and improved connection with others. My approach My goal is to tailor the therapeutic approach to each individual client's needs. I may use cognitive behavioral therapy to assist a client who is experiencing intrusive thoughts that are interfering with their daily functioning and relationships. I might use exposure therapy to enable a client to work through fears and phobias. I incorporate some psychodynamic therapy with most of my clients to help educate them on how their past and environment shape their beliefs and viewpoints in the present time. My focus My goal with the clients, with any issue, is to feel safe and confident in their therapeutic relationship, which will eventually transition into their own self-confidence and ability to enter into relationships. Any client dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, life transition issues, and relationship concerns will be able to build a tool kit of coping skills and measures to empower them as individuals. We will work on the goals that the client has for themselves, while incorporating confidence-building and self-growth. My communication style I am an active and patient listener who will reflect with feedback when it seems that is what the client needs at the appropriate time. I will create a safe, non-judgmental environment so the client is able to have open communication within the sessions. I have a calm demeanor, although I am actively empathizing with the client's feelings and situations. The therapist offers support and validation at all times.
