Getting to know Saeromi Kim

Hi there, I'm Saeromi! Hello, please call me Saeromi or Dr. Kim, up to you. I am a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience and hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Clark University. I am passionate about guiding people in their efforts to increase emotional and cognitive growth, create meaningful relationships, and cultivate balance and peace of mind. My approach I use an integrative therapeutic approach that includes Acceptance and Commitment, Psychodynamic, Narrative, Humanistic, CBT, and compassion-based modalities. I am guided by the particular needs and personality of each client, as it is my strong belief that one size does not fit all. Across all modalities, a strong therapeutic relationship is vital, as well as the expansion of psychological flexibility. My focus For me, it is essential to incorporate the particular cultural context of each person's experience of distress. In addition to my mental health specialties, I have significant experience working with Trans/Nonbinary and LGBQA+ people, college and graduate students, transnational people, and high-achieving individuals. I am Korean-Venezuelan and speak fluent Spanish. My communication style My clients often describe me as engaging, compassionate, present, and responsive. I see my greatest strength as my ability to easily connect with many different kinds of people, develop trust and rapport, and upon this foundation, build positive working relationships that promote healing. My journey to mental healthcare I believe good therapy involves science, art, philosophy, spirituality, creativity, and playfulness. I love exploring multiplicity, intersectionality, and non-perfectionistic striving. I also love engaging in meaningful dialogue every day. Therapy allows all of the above.
