I believe it's best to seek out solutions so you can achieve a fulfilling life physically, mentally and emotionally. By doing so, you can develop self-control, comfort, and confidence. My role as your OCD therapist is to support and guide you, but I'll let you be the decision maker. Direct communication, trust, and openness make the therapeutic relationship worthwhile. My other areas of focus include severe and persistent mental illness, including PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, generalized depression, anxiety, and substance abuse.

Why our members love working with Kim
N.G.
Kim is an incredible therapist and a huge part of my healing journey with OCD. She created a safe, non-judgmental space where I felt truly heard and understood. Her guidance helped me better understand my thoughts, develop practical tools, and slowly regain trust in myself. Kim is compassionate, patient, and deeply knowledgeable, and she supported me through some really difficult moments with kindness and clarity. I’m genuinely grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone struggling with OCD or anxiety.
K.C.
I worked with Kim for about a year and a half and for the entirety of that time I received constant support, understanding, and exercises that targeted my obsessions/compulsions. Even between sessions Kim would send little reminders and encouraging messages. She reached out on holidays and important dates specific to just me. While OCD is lifelong, I feel the most in control and stable than I ever have before. I am able to take a step back in situation that would have triggered or spiraled me previously and use an ERP lens. Beyond thankful for this experience and the tools I’m leaving with.

Kim is amazing! I’ve dealt with various subtypes of OCD for most of my life and she helped me take the steps to get my life back and finish grad school. She motivated me to do ERP and confront some of my biggest triggers. My exposures that once terrified me now seem so silly. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and willing to work with you to get better!! I can live my life again!

My therapiat, Kim Gruver, is easy to talk to. She doesnt judge; she pushes me yet supports me with encouragement. She also acknowledges my wins no matter how small or silly. I am glad to have her as my therapist and would highly recommend her. I can also tell she has experience with OCD and is a specialist. She has taught me alot in just over a month of treatment. She also has a wonderful memory of everything I confide in her.
