Kimberly Peltola

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience working with individuals, families and groups. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and trauma. I believe in a holistic approach that supports a person in their physical, emotional, social and spiritual well-being.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. It is always my goal to be present with clients and without judgment in order to provide a safe space for healing. I also offer clients a psychological approach to healthy living utilizing cognitive behavior therapy, motivational interviewing and introducing clients to the importance of mindfulness and meditation.

It’s a truism in social work that you don’t change people’s behavior by telling them what to do; you change behavior by building relationships. I believe this is the foundation for therapeutic work and something that I thrive on doing while still maintaining the proper professional and ethical boundaries.

I look forward to working with you!

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

One major benefit is the flexibility it offers – clients can meet with therapists in the format that fits their schedule and comfort level, including video calls, phone appointments, live chat or in-app messaging. That adaptability often makes it easier to maintain consistency and integrate therapy into a busy life.
