Getting to know Kimberly Ellis

Hi, I’m Kim, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Credentialed Addiction Counselor with over 15 years of experience supporting adolescents and adults through anxiety, depression, mood-related concerns, substance use, family conflict, and life stressors. I became a therapist because I value creating a space where people feel safe, heard, and supported while navigating difficult emotions and experiences. I believe meaningful change begins when clients feel comfortable enough to be honest about what they are carrying without fear of judgment. I also have over 14 years of experience working with individuals struggling with substance use and addiction. Throughout my career, I have supported clients navigating recovery, relapse prevention, emotional triggers, co-occurring mental health concerns, and the impact substance use can have on relationships, self-esteem, and daily functioning. I understand that recovery is not always linear, and I approach this work with compassion, accountability, and respect for each person’s individual journey. My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy to help clients better understand patterns in their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. I also focus on emotional regulation, communication skills, boundary-setting, self-worth, and developing healthier coping strategies that clients can realistically apply outside of sessions. I strive to create a nonjudgmental environment where clients feel emotionally safe while also being supported in making meaningful and lasting changes. My goal is to help clients build self-awareness, strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, and develop healthier ways to manage life’s challenges while moving toward greater emotional wellness and stability.

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.
