Why our members love working with Kimberly
E.B.
Good experienceI am so grateful for the time I spent working with Kimberly Torres. She helped me through some incredibly difficult periods with my OCD, and I truly don’t think I could thank her enough for everything she did for me. I was struggling with multiple different variations of OCD, and Kimberly helped me better understand what was happening and, more importantly, taught me how to respond to my OCD differently instead of constantly letting it control me. No matter what I brought into a session, she was always understanding, compassionate, and completely nonjudgmental. I never felt embarrassed or uncomfortable talking to her about what I was experiencing, which is so important when you’re dealing with OCD. One of my favorite things about Kimberly was how creative she was with exposures. She was constantly brainstorming new ideas and finding different ways to challenge me. If one approach wasn’t working, she was always willing to come up with something else. She didn’t just give me exposures to complete—she helped me understand why we were doing them and encouraged me through the process. Kimberly also brought so much positive energy to our sessions. She was enthusiastic, encouraging, and genuinely excited to see me make progress. Even when an exposure felt intimidating or I was having a difficult week, she made me feel supported and capable of continuing to work through it. I genuinely enjoyed our sessions together and always felt like Kimberly cared about my progress. OCD can make you feel incredibly isolated, especially when you’re dealing with thoughts or fears that are difficult to explain to other people. Having a therapist I could talk openly with without ever feeling judged made such a difference for me. Kimberly helped me in more ways than I can put into words. She gave me tools that I can continue using long after therapy and helped me learn that I don’t have to let OCD dictate how I live my life. I will always be incredibly thankful for her kindness, patience, creativity, and encouragement. I would absolutely recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for an OCD therapist who truly understands OCD and will be right there encouraging you as you learn to face it. -Elizabeth
