What should a new client know about working with you?
I’m Kimberly Ruth Taylor, a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Michigan, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Oklahoma, with over a decade of experience supporting teens and adults. I earned my undergraduate degree in Spanish Literature and Education from the University of Michigan–Ann Arbor, and went on to complete my master’s in Counseling at Wayne State University in Detroit.
My Journey
Before becoming a full-time counselor, I spent 15 years as a Spanish teacher and school guidance counselor, which deeply shaped my holistic, educational, and client-centered approach. Over the past 12–17 years, I’ve worked in diverse settings—from community mental health agencies and refugee camps to schools, residential care, and private practice—serving individuals and families from all walks of life.
Who I Work With
- I enjoy supporting clients navigating:
- Trauma, PTSD, complex grief, and domestic violence
- Mood and anxiety disorders (OCD, depression, anxiety, bipolar)
- Life transitions, relationship dynamics, codependency, and women’s issues
Clients describe me as down-to-earth, compassionate, and judgment-free—a partner in
fostering real-life growth.
Therapeutic Approach
I embrace an eclectic, integrative style tailored to each person’s unique needs. My evidence-based toolkit includes:
- EMDR and ERP for trauma and anxiety
- CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and IFS for internal healing
- Holistic and solution-focused strategies for overall well-being
- Humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive methods to promote insight and resilience
Who I Am
Trained in Spanish Literature, I’m fluently bilingual and deeply aware of cultural nuances in healing. I’m heart-centered, motivational, and grounded in respect and empathy—believing strongly that clients bring the wisdom we build on together.
Therapy Experience
- 12+ years of individual counseling (trauma, OCD, life stressors)
- Experience serving in community settings, schools, private and residential care
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
