"I worked with Kim through my junior year of college at a time when my time management, motivation levels, and overall academic performance needed fixing. Very quickly, through her methods and our discussions, I noticed myself questioning and reshaping my attitude for the better. This didn’t just help my academic performance, but increased my overall self awareness and helped me gain clarity on what I value and really want to do in life. Through the rest of the year, she helped reinforce productive habits and because of her ability to understand me and my usually confusing brain, provided personalized guidance. I am extremely grateful to have started working with Kim, and would highly recommend her!"

"Between 2017-2020, I worked over 1,000 hours with Kim. During that time, we developed ways to work with my cognitive and executive functioning challenges so that I could communicate and work more effectively. Kim was the catalyst to my needs getting legs and a voice. Because of our time together, I experienced significant improvements in streamlining my cognitive processes. The benefits I received from her were amplified by and a result of the many hours I spent with her. During our time together, Kim always put her best foot forward. She used the mundane tasks we did as natural learning opportunities. She was exceptional at leaving her biases at the door and being open to new ways to learn and work according to my specific needs. She could go into situations she wasn’t familiar with and expertly navigate the challenges. She always trusted and respected my need to go off the beaten path, while using the Socratic method to make sure I didn’t get too far off track. I would highly recommend Kim as an executive functioning specialist."

"Working with Kim over these past two years has been one of the most life-changing interactions I have had the pleasure to experience. Not only did she meet me when I was at an academic and personal low, and raised my feelings of capability and motivation, but she has given me the tools to work through future lows in an easy-to-follow and effective way. Kim has helped me to create a toolbox full of skills for functioning in a way that supports not only my academic life, but my personal life as well. Without the work we've done together, my chronic procrastination and lack of motivation would rule my life. Huge thanks to Kim for the deep impression she's made on my mind and life; anyone who works with her would be lucky to do such."
