Getting to know Kimberly Grimes

Kim, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, has extensive experience working with trauma survivors who struggle to regulate themselves and their relationships. She uses warmth, humor, authenticity, and transparency to help clients feel seen and heard without judgment. Kim makes sure to get to know clients, listening to every part of their experience and recognizing their cultural, spiritual, and social communities. She utilizes psychodynamic, cognitive, EMDR, and family systems approaches to help clients give words and meaning to their lived experience. After understanding their current symptoms and struggles, Kim assists clients in finding where the issues first began and helps heal those previous wounds to empower clients in the present day. She views therapy as a place for clients to gain insight, manage their emotional experience, and improve their social interactions. Prior to joining Fuller Counseling Group, Kim has 9 years of experience working with children and adults struggling with mental health issues. She has worked in a queer-affirming private practice supporting individuals facing mental health challenges, gender identity issues, religious trauma, and intersectionality. Kim has also provided immediate crisis support for global mental health resources as well as long-term residential treatment for children in DCFS care. Kim earned her bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Rochester and her master's degree in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. Growing up in Oak Park, IL, Kim developed a passion for diversity and inclusion for BIPOC and queer communities. She recognizes the social, political, and economic impacts on these marginalized communities and how these factors influence a client's day-to-day experiences. Kim's personal mission is to help each client feel heard, seen, and assured they are not alone in the fight for social justice and equality.
