About Naomi

Naomi Kim is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. She brings 15 years of clinical experience and a straightforward, practical approach to help people manage anxiety, mood changes, and everyday stress. Naomi writes plainly and listens carefully to understand what matters most to each person.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. Naomi also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach tolerance for distress and clearer communication. She offers trauma-informed care and will not push someone to revisit upsetting memories before they are ready.

Naomi has a long background working in inpatient psychiatric settings and community agencies. That work gave her experience with depression, anxiety, panic-related concerns, and parenting and family stress. She also has experience supporting adults with developmental disabilities and works from a strengths-based view to build practical skills.

Clients can expect straightforward skill-building in sessions. Naomi can teach relaxation techniques, problem solving, and boundary setting. She focuses on concrete steps people can try between sessions to feel more in control.

Naomi is a military veteran and understands the challenges of opening up about difficult experiences. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk through struggles and find workable solutions.

How Naomi’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Naomi commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT helps people learn the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns by teaching practical thought‑tracking and behavior changes. DBT provides concrete skills for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and clearer communication in tense interactions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Naomi works with each person to choose which tools fit their goals and situation. She adjusts techniques over time so sessions match what is actually helping the person feel steadier day to day.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make attending sessions easier to fit around work, school, caregiving, and travel. It can also make shorter check‑ins possible and reduce time spent commuting, which helps people practice skills between sessions and keep progress consistent.
