KIMBERLY KOSSOFF
LMHC

Let’s start working towards a happier and healthier you!

Throughout our lives, we create an identity of who we are and the role we play within the world we live in. But we can often feel as though we are overwhelmed and alone.

Learning how to find happiness is different for everybody.

Exploring current behaviors and our personal narrative is important in understanding why we may be unable to break out of our current ineffective cycles. Creating healthy habits and mindsets can help manifest a fulfilling life.

I hope to provide a safe, open space to learn how to manage the weight of anxiety/depression and help create a toolkit unique to you.

I help individuals and families who are struggling with:

Anxiety
Trauma
Depression
Family Conflict
Low Self-Esteem
Men’s Health

My theraputic methods include:

DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy)
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
Adlerian Therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy
Art Therapy
MBCT (Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy)

Testimonials

I can't say enough good things about Kimberly. First sessions with a new therapist are always daunting while you figure out if you get along but she jumped right in explaining her qualifications and approach, remained empathetic and warm while we were getting to know one another, and provided some great insight in just the first session. I'm really looking forward to continuing sessions.

Never felt so comfortable and safe with a therapist until i met Kimberly! Absolutely loved the safe space vibe and the easy flowing communication. Her techniques are different than the normal therapists, which makes it more helpful and better to improve. Would definitely recommend her to anyone. I appreciate how relatable and real she is!

Like many, I've been through the song and dance of speed dating therapists. between the ones that "uh-huh" you for an hour and the ones that make you go "how is this person a licensed therapist?", I started to wonder if maybe therapy wasn't right for me. Kim was literally the light at the end of the tunnel. She's kind and patient, she challenges you, she gives you readings and skills and tools.

Kimberly is fantastic - she has a high emotional intelligence factor, has an advanced and in-depth understanding of her field, and is easy to open up to. Her methods are helpful and effective, and I felt an immediate rapport with her as we began to work together. She's made an incredible impact in my life!
