Kimberly Austin
Psychotherapist - LCSW
Compassion, honesty, and humor are key aspects of my approach. I have a profound respect for the human spirit and believe that we all have the capacity to experience life meaningfully– with purpose and joy. Unfortunately, life presents many challenges that can “get in the way.” Therapy can provide essential insight and assistance towards healing and growth. I specialize in Brainspotting and EMDR, two powerful approaches to treat trauma and performance enhancement, creativity, and professional development.
My clients have described me as “genuine,” “down to earth”, and “effective.” Those who had been originally been intimidated or skeptical by the idea of “therapy” have told me that they were pleasantly surprised by how comfortable they were with me and how helpful the therapy was to them.
