In 1987, Kim had her first exposure to Dr. William Glasser’s CT and it has been making all the difference in her life. It was CT that gave Kim the inner strength she would need to manage the events that life had in store for her. While committed to very rewarding work in the field of child welfare, it was necessary to practice CT principles to prevent stress and burnout. At the age of 34, she learned her husband had a terminal illness and by age 38, she was raising two teenage boys alone. CT helped through that period. Then, some time after that, she reentered the dating world after a 16-year marriage. This may have been the biggest challenge of all---to stay the person she wanted to be and manage the disappointments and heartaches involved in attempting to find the right person to share her life. Currently, CT is assisting her to accept her youngest son’s deployment to Iraq.

Kim is an expert in relationship, parenting and personal empowerment. She works with individuals who want to gain more effective control of their lives and relationships, and who would like to achieve greater satisfaction and heightened contentment. What makes her services different from other relationship experts is that she helps her clients tap into their internal power source by focusing only on those things they can change, and as a result, her clients become empowered so they can deliberately create the life and relationships they deserve.

She has maintained a private counseling practice and in 2004, decided to move into the field of coaching, where there are a greater number of individuals more highly motivated to make the changes they seek. If you would like to get your life back on track, get closer to important people in your life, better manage the pain and disappointment of life or reduce depression, fear, frustration and anger and develop greater happiness and satisfaction in your life, then Kim is for you!
