Kimberly Shirk
As a therapist, I approach my practice with a person-centered and neurodiverse perspective. My focus is on clients aged 14 and up, couples 18 and older, with a depth of experience with the ASD community. I prioritize understanding and valuing each individual's unique experiences, perspectives, and strengths; as I prioritize the creation of a safe and empowering space where clients feel respected, accepted, and supported in exploring their thoughts, feelings, and goals. My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and collaboration. I work alongside my clients to co-create personalized strategies and interventions that honor their autonomy and foster personal growth. I believe in empowering clients to tap into their inner resources, build self-awareness, and develop skills to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience.
