Getting to know Dr. Kimberly Pusey

I’m Dr. Kim Pusey (pew-zee), a licensed psychologist, who wants to work with you on whatever life has thrown your way (e.g., trauma, depression, etc.). I take a warm, down-to-earth approach that blends honesty, practicality, and evidence-based care. Let me understand and support you. Together, we can overcome any problem! My approach My approach is collaborative and tailored to each client. Each person comes with their own story, so I take time to understand what’s happening across your thoughts, feelings, and relationships before deciding what tools will help most. I use evidence-based approaches, but overall, I believe therapy works best when it feels human and flexible. My focus I work with individuals from all walks of life who are seeking relief, clarity, or direction. Whether you’re coping with stress, depression, or past trauma, I’ll meet you with honesty, warmth, and practical tools that fit your life. Therapy with me feels like a partnership—we’ll set goals together and work toward them one step at a time. My communication style My clients often describe me as genuine, grounded, and easy to talk to. I try to bring both kindness and candor into every session—enough warmth for you to feel safe and enough honesty to help you grow. We’ll laugh sometimes, reflect often, and stay focused on the changes that matter most to you. My journey to mental healthcare My path to becoming a psychologist began with a lifelong curiosity about why people do what they do and how they heal. Growing up in Miami, I saw how trauma, instability, and lack of support could shape a person’s life—but also how compassion and evidence-based care could change it. That led me here, to help you reclaim control over your life! My goals for you We’ll start by exploring what’s bringing you to therapy and what “better” would look like for you.
