OCD can be tricky and sticky in thought. My hope is to provide a safe, supportive atmosphere where you feel open to sharing. I will focus on building a solid foundation of honesty, trust, and respect as we explore the experiences that bring you to therapy. I studied child psychology and education, then pursued a career in teaching before becoming a therapist. In addition to OCD, my areas of expertise include trauma, anxiety, depression, relational trauma, attachment disorders, and eating disorders.

Why our members love working with Kimberly
C.B.
Kimberly Parra was an incredible NOCD therapist for me. She was so nonjudgmental and kind. She was one of the few therapists that I felt so comfortable around. Before I signed up, I was having such terrible social and health anxiety that I wasn’t sleeping, often close to panic attacks, and trembling/crying through the night. No medication helped (I tried a plethora), and I couldn’t hold down a decent job. She helped me 100% get my life back. I took her sessions for about 6 months and stopped last winter, but I still use the ERP techniques she taught me all the time. Our sessions ended because I moved to a state she wasn’t licensed in, and I cried at the end of our sessions from how moved I was. She was truly the best, I couldn’t recommend her enough. ❤️
