Individual Counseling
Individual therapy with Kimberly Marks is a collaborative process where you work one-on-one tailored to your unique needs. During sessions, which typically last 45-60 minutes, you can explore whatever is on your mind—current challenges, past experiences, relationships, goals, or emotional struggles.
Kimberly draws from multiple therapeutic approaches to best support you, including psychodynamic therapy, CBT, mindfulness-based techniques, DBT, ACT, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). She is also trained in EMDR for trauma processing. This multi-modal approach means your therapy is customized to what works best for you, whether you're a child, teen, working mom, single professional, or parent navigating life's complexities.
The first session involves getting to know each other and discussing what brought you to therapy, while subsequent sessions build on previous conversations. Kimberly provides a safe, non-judgmental space designed entirely for your growth and healing, moving at whatever pace feels comfortable for you as you develop insight, build coping strategies, and work toward positive change.

Kimberly works with individuals and families navigating a wide range of transitions—adolescents discovering their identity, young adults launching into independence, college students adjusting to new demands, empty nesters redefining their purpose, professionals facing job changes or career crossroads, those grieving death and loss, individuals moving through divorce, new moms and parents adjusting to their expanded roles, and parents supporting LGBTQ children.
These transition points, while sometimes exciting, can also bring anxiety, grief, confusion, or a sense of lost identity. Kimberly helps you make sense of what you're experiencing, process the losses and gains that come with change, and develop resilience as you move forward. Drawing from her multi-modal approach, she provides both emotional support and practical strategies tailored to your specific transition.
