Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Kimberly Athuman. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

I love my therapist

Written on Apr 04, 2024 after therapy with Kimberly for 6 months

Dr. Athuman is knowledgeable, kind, and personable. She was able to form a bond with my child who is very introverted and standoffish to most people. I really appreciate the progress they have made so far.

I was very nervous about putting myself out there but it has been freeing to finally have my past out in the light. It seems to be that it isn't in the shadows it hasn't popped into to my thoughts like it used to I can finally put it behind me and move on.

I am heard, seen, and validated. She is authentic and I have made progress internally in just a few appointments. This was the best decision I could have made for myself

Truly awesome. Listens to me and my concerns and gives useful and practical guidance on how I can help myself. I would recommend Dr. Athuman to anyone

She is very patient and is amazing at holding space for all my emotions. She helps me navigate through processing difficult situations.

She is very friendly, funny, and is a neutral person who doesn't know either of our sides. She agrees or disagees to both of us on certain subjects. She is a great person to talk to.

Dr Athuman has invested great amount of time into listening to my concerns and helped me seek clarity about some of the things I had questions on. I've learned a lot about myself in the process.

Kim is the greatest! We clicked immediately and she's always very understanding and supportive, but will also point out things that I should work on - negative ways of viewing things or trauma responses that need to be tended to. She's so easy to talk to and I look forward to our sessions each week. Definitely recommend!

We immediately connected, which was a very different experience with my previous experience. She eased me into unpacking my less traumatic issue. She checked in with mid-week to follow up on my action steps. Really nice!

Dr. Athuman is one of the best therapists I have ever met! She is very good at validating our feelings but also calling us out if we are in the wrong. She takes the time to listen to each side and then gives us feedback. She also gives us assignments based on what we need to work on in our relationship.

I love Dr. Athuman! She's great on checking up on me. she gives thoughtful and helpful feedback. She's doing a great job of helping me work me through some of my issues. Highly recommend.

Dr. Athuman has been great, she talks me through things and helps me see situations in another perspective, which is exactly what I need. She’s given me worksheets to help with specific areas of my life that I hope to use in future situations and has made me feel comfortable and relatable in our conversations.

She has been sent from the heavens! I have seen so many different therapist and I think I finally found the right one.
