About Me
Stephanie Kim, LMHC
My approach to therapy is compassionate and direct. I view you holistically, taking into account your present circumstances as well as the many factors that shape who you are—your environment, relationships, physical health, mind, and emotions.
I work with clients on anxiety, depression, relationship issues (including marital and pre-marital), childhood trauma, life transitions, burnout, spirituality, and grief. As an Asian American therapist, I particularly enjoy working with Asian American individuals on issues related to culture, family dynamics, and identity exploration. I also value the intersection of mental health and faith. I've taught counseling skills to church leaders and advocated for mental health awareness in Asian American Christian communities. Faith integration is available if that's important to you.
I'm an IFS Level One Trained Therapist and Prepare Enrich Certified. I use a person-centered approach alongside evidence-based therapies like CBT and DBT, all from a culturally sensitive and trauma-informed perspective.
